    My Installation containing Frameworks setup?

    A stupid question (On day 6 of learning VB.NET)

    If I was to write a 'Hello Word' application in VB.NET destined for a machine which isn't running frameworks (say Windows 95), what would the installation program install on the clients machine?

    the client needs the 21 meg .NET redistributable..

    yes its big..but it is worth it for .NET really..

    And it is really only 2 times the size of Java VM is comparison.


    BTW...NET framework cannot be installed on 95..only 98 and up.

    Thanks Cander.

    So my little 'Hello World' app would no longer fit on a floppy!
    I thought that would be the case, but I wasn't sure!
