How to deply vb.net project in client system

[Abitha]

hi!

i wanna know how to deploy project in client system.

My project contains sqldatabase and vb.net codings. after i gone through some articles i found that we can publish the project using Publish option in windows applicaitons properties.

my doubt is ,
1. database will get copied and remains witht the applicaitons.
2. Should .net and sqlserver be installed in client's system also.

Pls tell as am going to do first time.

1. If you added the database to the project, yes.

2. By default, the installer will check to see whether they are installed and, if not, download and install them. You can check that and change the behaviour in the Prerequisites dialogue. If you're deploying on a disc then you should include the prerequisites with the installer.
