Ok when I started creating this app with vb.net I was one of the few that didn't do enough readinnot atypical.
Anyways, I created the app no problem and it runs great from the local machine. I try to run it from a network mapped drive and it throws a fit with security. Did some reading and found that I have to do a setup to let the application run in the local zone instead of the intranet zone.
Ok I'm working on a package but now I want to create a shortcut to the network exe I dont' want it stored locally that way I can *hopefully* just replace the exe occasionally and won't have to do a new setup if I make a minor change.
So I'm setting up the deployment package, I added the exe to get the proper dependancies, but excluded it from the package. Now my problem is, I'm trying to create shortcuts in the start menu and desktop. However, its throwing a fit because it keeps wanting to include the exe into the project. I say exclude it and it gets pissed
I just want the shortcut NOT the exe to be deployed!
Or let me guess, soon as I replace the exe with an updated version it throw the security deal out of whack?![]()


not atypical.
