    Distribution and Installation

    I am working on a program that I need to distribute to and install on client PC's. I have tried searching for posts on this subject, but have found limited information. What I am looking for is a means to package my program into an install exe that I can use to install on client PC's. I am looking for a means to do this that give me control over how to set options, install directories, etc. It doesn't have to be a VB product.

    Thanks

    Have you tried the Package and Deployment Wizard that comes with VB6?
