Hi all i work for an IT company we have developed several applications in VB (4,5,6) however cannot seem to install them on windows XP (we use windows 2000 generally). I was wondering if anybody knows about a wrapper tool my manager thinks exists somewhere to package these applications in order to install them on windows XP.
Alternatively any other suggestions for methods of installing these applications are welcome.
Cheers.

Welcome to VBF,
however what is the error you are getting or the problem you are facing.. what are the utilities/tools you have tried..
The problem is that the VB applications that are usualy installed on windows 2000 (using an install package) will not install on XP, and bring up the message 'a script could not run'. I was wondering if anyone has ever had a similar kind of problem and what they did about it, but if not then not to worry.
I never experienced with an error like this... but could I ask you to try copying the code to winxp machine, compile and create a new setup to proceed. I hope this will help.
What are you using to create an installer?
