I have written an application in VB6 and need to deploy it. I am new to deployment methods and need advice on the best way to proceed. I tried to bring up the MS Package and Deploment Wizard in VB6 by checking that box under the Project->Components menu, got the error message "error in loading DLL". Does anyone know why that is happening? Is there an alternative package and deployer that you could recommend? Thanks.

The Package and Deployment Wizard is an Add-In. It should be in your list of available add-ins. Once loaded a new menu item will appear in the Add-In menu.

Alternatively you can run it directly from
Start -> Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 -> Microsoft Visual Studio Tools

The above depends on your version and the options you chose at installation/setup.

Other options

MSI Installer - download from Microsoft's Website.
