If you are using Modern UI please read it's Readme (Start menu->Programs->NSIS->Contrib). NSIS User Manual may be usefull as well.

Well... im not sure what UI i use... I started from the example example1.nsi and have read me through to making a quite simple but effective installer of an application written i VB6. So basically this is what i want to do:
Exec '"$INSTDIR\myapp.exe"'
I just dont know where to put it..?

You can put it in...

Function .onInstSuccess
  # code to run when installation successful
FunctionEnd
