I am trying to make a project moveable that is designed in VB6. It includes a data environnment and reports. I used this code to "make the project moveable"

Private Sub DataEnvironment_Initialize()
ConnData2.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=" & App.Path & "\dataver2.mdb;"
End Sub

I have read about the 3 files I need to make the project work on another machine. I included the files in the references. I was told to use the PDW. I don't understand the PDW or what it does. I see that it checks for dependencies, what installs those dependant files on a new pc if this is on a cd-rom? Are you supposed to click on the .exe file or another file that the PDW created?

 
Did you try VBHelp?

That's usually the best starting point:

There are also lots of threads on this forum that have covered this - do a search on 'deployment' or 'packaging'
