Program created in Windows XP not working in 2000
Hey everyone,
i've completed my program at last, its all good and i've learnt some basic VB stuff now.
Anyways, I seem to have a problem. I have used the application and deployment wizard to create a setup and I put it on disk (created this in XP). I then put the disk in a Windows 2000 computer and it goes through the motions, but then I get something like following message:
"the files on your system are out of date, would you like to install the updated files. You must restart to continue installation."
I get some sort of message like the above. But when I restart and try and run the setup again it just gives me the same message. I have looked in the temp folder and notice that 3 of the .dll's appear there along with the program files, but the rest of the dll's seem to not be there.
I'm guessing that the first step of the setup is to copy the dll's, hence the other dll's have already been copyied. But then it stops because it cannot copy the other dll's and puts all my program files and the remaining dll's in the temp folder?.
I have also tried deleting the folder within the temp folder and checked autoexec.bat (autoexec.bat is empty).But whatever I do it just doesnt work. Now i'm starting to think that its something to do with the 3 dll's in the temp folder and compatibility with Windows 2000.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks (* I will just go and find out what the dll's are, might help)
