I wrote a program in vb 6 using user document. The program was loaded into an imbedded web server. By accessing the ip address it would hit an htm file that would then direct it to open the cab file and download the program in temp memory and run it. I understand that vb.net does not support user documents anymore, but when I create cab files now for deployment it does not idiomatically create an htm file for distribution. This is important since it has the cab code on it. Is there something I am missing or does anyone have a better idea of how to distribute a program with the above scenario. Since the web server is embedded it does not support anything, so I need whatever I write to be downloaded to the clients machine and ran locally with all the dll and other files. Is this possible in vb.net and how. I appreciate any help I could receive on this subject, since I am at a stand still and would like to move forward with visual studio.

Thank You,
