    Question Setup help

    Do I need to include all the MS*JET* junk when packaging my app, if I don't use any databases in the app?

    Thanks,
    CJ

    What about DAO350.DLL?
    Can I get rid of that file too?
    I don't think I need it, DAO's have to do with databases, right?

    So reading and writing to disk files would not be considered DAO?

    My app gets data in that manner, not through any dbase.

    Thank you,

    The files are located in the App.Path and are accessed by "Open As Input etc." VB command.

    Thanks much for your help and your offer to look at my project.

    I'm nervous about packaging it because there is so much in this forum about what can go wrong.

    Instead of sending the project to you, a few points that concern me about packaging are:

    I am using a REG file to register my Outlook DLL in Setup (this should be all right)
    I'm using an INET control
    and
    Do I have to include the OLE Automation stuff in Setup?

    I've got the exact same problem; the P&D wizard also includes JET and DAO350 files, but I don't use any databases. So why does the P&D Wizard include them in the package anyway...?
