Hi all I made a very simple vb6 app involving a couple of forms, and some mscomm and mschart controls. I need to create something like a setup wizard to install my app in several computers (running under differente windows versions). I haven't done this before so any recommendation of how to do it? I developed the app in XP, is there anything I need to take under consideration for installing in Vista or Windows 7?
thanks in advance....
Here is the forum's FAQ on application deployment. Worth looking over.
Regarding Vista and Windows7, yes there are major considerations. Permissions for non-admin/powerusers being the biggest obstacles. Here are some links to look at also.

I'm sure others may offer some other links of interest, but you may want to search this forum for Vista Installation and look at other threads.
or you can do a normal VB6 setup for catch every dlls and ocx files. then using Inno Stup Compiler(it's free):http://www.jrsoftware.org/, you can make, easly, your own setup files;)Quote:

Hi guys I decided to use Inno Setup Compiler and works fine under XP but in Vista I'm receiving the following error after running setup..
Run time error 339
Component MSCHRT20.OCX or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid.
Does anybody knows how to workaround this problem??
Thanks...
