[RESOLVED] Distributing an .exe file...
Hey all,
I recently got some help making a quick little application and exported it as an .exe file. However, if you try to run it on a machine that doesn't have VB on it, you get an error asking you for a .dll (or maybe .ocx...) file. This is a result of using a Rich Text Box in the application. For me, this was an easy fix: Download the file, slip it into my windows/system32 directory, and run the application again. However, I want to give this app to some not so computer saavy friends. I even tried sending them the file over msn to put in the directory, but msn brought it up as a potentially dangerous file and blocked it. So, is there a way of giving somebody the application/installing the Rich Tet Box file that would be easy for somebody who isn't too technical? I thought of just using WinZip, but that might get caught by msn as well, and I'm not sure she's even got it on her computer.
Thanks,
Jeremy
