    Resolved [RESOLVED] VB 2010 SetUp Package

    Hi VB gurus! is there a way to make a setup package on VB 2010 that will check prerequisite addons on clients PC?

    E.g.

    The setup will check if MS Access 2010 Engine and Crystal Reports Runtime 2010 is installed. If the installer detected its already installed it will just install the application.

    If one or both prerequisite is not found the installer will install the addon automatically.

    Any response about this matter is highly appreciated... Thanks in advance....

    The Setup project has a Prerequisites dialogue. I think that CR is already in there. If not then you would have to create your own package, as you will for ACE also.
