I want to declare the deletefile function from the winapi
and delete a file named for exapmple X in drive c
I know how to writ it but because I use a form for it when I make a setup.exe, msvbvm50.dll (vb version 5) is included how can I get rid of it because when included ( It is about 1.3 megabye) it makes the setup.exe very huge :( about 1.4 megabyte.
I would appriciate if you could help me
thank you very much
siincerely yours Rosana
Your program won't run without it. But if this dll is already present on the machine (from at least the service pack you used), you can omit it. If you create the setup with the application setup wizard, you get at a step called File summary. Uncheck the checkbox in front of this dll.
I would suggest to use another packaging program, for example InstallShield. It makes a lot better setup programs for VB applications than VB setup and something Wizard.
