You can include any file with a VB program using a resource file. But your application can't ran on a computer that doesn't have the VB runtime files.
Take a look at this compression utility which was uploaded today on http://www.planet-source-code.com .
Matthew,I took allok at the compression util and downloaded it.But it doesnt work on my Win95 box!!.When I try to run the source it says I dont have MSCHART.ocx or something.I dont have time right now to examine the code so......
Can you briefly explain what it does?
To Joacim, i want to know how to embed files after the program has been compiled.Can resource files be updated after compilation?
With respects to file embedding, you can use a Byte Array.
No, you can't modify resources after compilation. I used to do it all the time in Win 3.1, but the 32bit versions don't allow it.
