The call is usually placed in the forms 'Initialize' event.
On the forms first run, it will create the manifest file automatically in
the app directory. It will only create the file if the Windows version is
greater than Win2K, and the file does not already exist.
A method guaranteed to fail in Vista which forbids writing to the
application folder.
I've yet to see this fail on Vista.
