.NET Framework 1.1
I realize this is a silly question whose answer is 99.99% surely no, but the remaining 00.01% is worth the trouble of asking...
is there any way around forcing clients to download the 14MB .NET framework from microsoft in order to run vb .NET generated applications ?
Maybe I could include certain dlls within the program that are specific to the function of my program?
Thanks

Nope
Use standard C++ to create an app that way.

You can include the Framework on CD or some other media if its the downloading that bothers you but they will still need to have it to run any .NET app.

The Framework package is about 21mb not 14 mb :p

thanks...
I guess there's no way around that, but there surely is a way around this...
When a client doesn't have the .NET framework installed, he gets an "applcation error" messagebox that is uninformative and gives users a bad impression about the program. Is there a way to check if the .NET framework exists before running the program, without having to include multiple exes in the program?
Thanks

Yes , you need to include a condition in your installer that checks for which version you set it to . If it's there , it resume , otherwise it'll rollback .
-
Could you please give details about that or point to a place that does?
Thank you
