    I have create a application whose size should be round about 1 MB.To run the application properly I have to include msvbvm60.dll in my package ,but when I try to include this dll in the package several other dll's such as Stdole2.tlb,Oleaut32.dll,Olepro32.dll,Comcat.dll,asyncfilt.dll,Ctl3d32.dll gets included in the package automatically thereby increasing the size of the package.Please tell me how i can remove this unwanted dll's.

    If your packaging includes those files it means your application needs those file in order to run. By looking at the file names you gave I believe they are name of the controls you used on your project. I believe if you don't want those files you can just delete them when you are setting up the packaging wizard (I just know about visual basic 6.0 packing and deploying wizards). In order to add the file you mentioned you have to know where is the file and then add it into the application.

    If you remove the files you risk your program not running after you install it. These files may be present on the machine that you are installing to, but you have no guarantee that the version # are the same as your development/distribution machine. This is what could get you into trouble
