Package and Deployment Wizard 1

The packages that I create using the package and deployment wizard always cause the application shortcuts to get installed in the Start menu under the profile of the logged-in user, not under the "All Users" profile.

How can I get the shortcut to install under the "All users" profile rather than the profile of the logged in user?
 
What package are you using? Just about any deployment product should be able to produce All Users installations.

I haven't lost my mind - I know it's backed up on tape somewhere ....
 
I'm using the Microsoft Package and Deployment Wizard for Visual Basic. I did find that there is a parameter in the setup.lst file that I can modify after I build the deployment package (change PrivateGroup0 from True to False), but it seems there should be an option button or a checkbox somewhere to specify this using the wizard - but I haven't been able to find it.
 
Just set the PrivateGroup1=True in the Setup.lst file and that will solve your problem.
 
Hello.
I packaged my program by 'Package and deployment Wizard' in VB6.0.
My program uses Access as database.
When I copy my program to another computer that not installed VB6.0. On that computer I was install MDAC2.0 But a runtime error: "Class not registered. Looking for object with CLSID: {5924525-7a2f-11d0-9482-00a0c91110ed}
Can you help me?
Thank you very much!
 
I got a book on programing Visual basic, and I got pretty
good at it, but where can I download the package and deployment wizard to compile my program, because the book i got came with some working model edition of VB and there is
an error every time I run the wizard.
 
I am getting an "Automation Error", Catastrophic failure
unexpected setup error, when I try to install on another computer,using the cab and set up I sent to the network. However if I try to install on my own pc it works. It appears to fail during the little gray box that says copying cab file. I have tried every thing I know.
 
hello sir,
i have developped a software using visal basic,
crystall reports & Access as back end, but when i am running a Package & deployment Wizard i am getting error saying that " Unexpected error no 28 has foung; out of stack space"
this proble will come only when, i am adding cpre32.dll to the package, so what is the solution
 
the "out of stack space" error when using
pack & deploy wizard with crystal reports
is documented in microsoft site
(Q305558)

it happens due to a bug in a crystal reports file
called Crystl32.dep , it creates a circular dependency
you need to comment some lines in a section:
So that it reads:

;[CRPE32.DLL]
;Dest=$(WinSysPath)
;Uses1=Crpe32.dll
;Uses1=
;Uses2=
 
run packager
on Start Menu Items Screen,highlight Project name and click properties,
this open start menu group properties
select private for logged on user or Common to place icon in all users

You're probably using the MSCAL.OCX control - it's a known bug w/the P and D wizard - edit your setup.lst in your favorite text editor and look for the line that contains "@MSCAL.OCX,$(WinSysPath),$(DLLSelfRegisterEx)" and remove the Ex part of that line so it reads "@MSCAL.OCX,$(WinSysPath),$(DLLSelfRegister)" - problem fixed.
