    Question

    I've just used the Deployment Wizard for the first time and was shocked to see the size of the thing. My App is 212Kb yet the Wizard wants mw to deply 2.6MB? Whats going on here?

    Even if I zip the required dll's and my App its a lot less. Anybody got any tips or advice on how to create a small exe for (easy) distribution?

    Your appl. probably uses several controls that also have to be included with the setup file...AND the vbrun time dlls are quite large so i'm not surprised to see it over 2mb.
