I apologize if my question seems dumb. I picked up VB today after not touching it in about a year.
I have finished my VB6 project.
How do I create the install/setup file for other computers?

well i use Inno Setup 5 <<google it
and just add all files along with it in setup and create it
its simple!
or use Package and Deployment Wizard in V Studio
The easiest is probably to launch the package and deployment wizard that comes with VB. Another option is to use another installer, there are many available out there. Personally I use the free InnoSetup, it can use most everything the commersial installers can do. But there is of course a small learning curve to start using it.
yeh use INNO it took me no time to learn how to get it work.. its simple.. but u will have to manually add ocx files and other runtime files while as package and deployment tells u the files needed by the application to run...
FNC, in the Application Development's FAQ there are many links to different installers.
