    Embedding Runtime Dll In My Exe

    Hi All

    Need some basic info again. can i include all the VB6 run-time DLLS and other DLLS or OCX, if any, into my application EXE. I am trying to avoid the SETUP Process for my user.

    Also is there any better shareware packaging tool other that P & D that comes with VB6?

    Will appreciate immediate response and thanx for the same.

    No. Those are files external to your application, but must be physically present for your application to run.

    Check out Wise Installer, and InstallShield.

    You can get a license to use VISE Installer (like Quicktime Installer) for free for a year if you only use it for Freeware and Shareware.

    How would your program run in order to get them from the resource file without them already there?

    In a word, No.
