Adding extra files

Hello everyone!
I'm sorry for always posting strange questions, but sometimes I get crazy
trying to do very simple things...
This time I was trying to add in TD 2 extra files. I want these files in the
system32 folder of the image, so I right-clicked extra files, chose Add and
then the window for adding extra files came out. I clicked Browse to select
one of the files, which is in the C:\OEMFILES folder in my computer, which I
created to group the files I want to automatically build in the image. After
selecting the file I changed the destination directory, selecting
C:\WINDOWS\system32 from the list of available system folders, and then I
could read the effective path on the last label, which was
C:\WINDOWS\system32\myfile.txt. Right? I repeated this procedure for the
second file and then I built the image after a successful check, but the
build process returned 2 errors:
file not found "myfile.txt"
file not found "myfile2.txt"
So I went back to the Add files window and tried to go to the advanced
properties page by clicking the button Advanced. There I saw that SrcPath and
SrcName were blank, so I edited these properties for both files to insert the
strings (C:\OEMFILES for SrcPath and myfile.txt for SrcName) and rebuilt the
image. There were the errors again.
What was wrong?

Thanks in advance!

In Target Deisgner you need to set the path for the Extra Files Folder under
the Tools->Options->Build tab.
