A better way to deploy my app?
Hi everyone! I am trying to distribute an app I created that incorporates ADO/MS Jet 4.0 and an MS Access database.
Now according to the dependency file generated by the P&D Wizard, I need to include the Msado21.tlb and Msjro.dll files in my setup package.
Together, these files are less then 200K -- however, according to the Microsoft Knowledge Base, the only way for these files to get correctly installed on a system is to distribute and run the nearly 8MB MDAC file on the target system (even worse is I have to include DCOM for Win95 systems).
Now, maybe it's just me, but it seems insane that I have to include an 8MB runtime in my setup package to properly install 2 measly database components for my app to run.
Anybody have any ideas on how I can create a smaller setup package?
