[resolved] Developing on WIn8 and Packaging & Deploying for XP

Hello ppl
If you develop and application with VB6.0 on a computer which runs on WIndows 8, what should you do so your installation package would work on XP and NT computers?
1. Do you have to do anything at all? If yes what?
2. DO you have to complie and packege on an XP to be able to install it on an XP or NT computer?
Thanks

No, not really.

The app doesn't have to be compiled on a Win NT or XP system, but all computers it runs on must have the VB6 runtime files installed, as well as any other references you may be using in your project. :)

Hi
Thanks for the replies. I have 3 questions:

1. How can I find the files [the VB6 runtime files installed, as well as any other references] that has to go with it ?
2. Where can I get them?
3. How can I include them in the installation package to make sure thaty are installed?
Thanks a million in advance

All rintime files are included when you create Setup package. To build such package you may use any available utility (perhaps P&DW or Inno ...).
