    Re: import file and place it

    Oh ... In that case your best ebt is to create a distribution package using any available utility (perhaps Package & Deployment Wizard that comes with VB) so all necessary files (those that are mandatory) will be included and when you actually run setup on the destination machine all of your dl/ocs files will be copied to system's folder and registered if necessary.

    Good luck.

    You have to add the Package and Deployment Wizard, then you can use it to package a program. It is not the same as using Publish.

    When MS utilities don't work for you (for one reason or the other) then INNO SETUP could be very good alternative.

    davyquyo,

    You can use ********** along with Inno Setup to create your package.
