Hi

I've got a front-end written in VB6 using ADO that searches an Access DB. I want to distribute this on a CD so that the user can just pop in the CD and run the EXE and it doesn't need to install any files, like DLLs, to do it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Many thanks,
Duncan
 
Use the Package and deployment wizard to create a setup package for installation. Found in the VB or visual studio tool menu.

You will have to include the Access DB manually.

Ensure that no file distrbution rights are being violated.

You can use other packages such as Visual studio installer and INNO setup as well.
