Add Mswinsck.ocx into my app

[bh4575]

hey..how do u add "Mswinsck.ocx" and other things like that into your app. instead of having them both separate?

Do you building them into the exe? Or adding them as references?
I assume you mean building the whole thing as one file... unfortunately that's a bit hard... There is a program called Fusion which can do that for you but it's pretty expensive

You could also look at open-source alternatives and build them into your project, instead of the compiled versions.

Fusion? will that join them together? what is the website? what is its full name?

Fusion is made by Bitarts. What it does is take a compiled Exe, find its dependencies (OCX's, DLL's etc.) and then pack them all into a single resultant EXE file. The executable produced can be run on any system (with compatible OS) without the need for any other files to be installed along with it. Of course that includes the VB runtime as well.

Is there anyway to just make it...run without having to include mswinsck.ocx? like make it use the 1 in the sytem32 folder or something?
ive seen other chat apps that dont have to have it included!

Well yeah, if its already in the system folder it should run anyway
