    Including missing files in a setup

    Hello,

    I've got this tab writing program that I'm trying to give to a bunch of guitarist, and they all have the same problem. Two files are missing. I researched it and found two sites that they can download the files and then the program will work. Is there a way to include these files when I send my program to them?

    How did you "give it to tem" ??? Did you build some distribution package or simply send an excutable file only? In case you don't know there is a package & Deployment Wizard (aka P&DW) available in VB so try using it.

    add them in your zip?

    or if u use INNO to create your setup it will include in the setup.exe

    I didnt know you could create a setup installation type thing in vb. Would someone care to show me how I could do this and have those two files installed also?

    Click Add-Ins/Add-In Manager

    Locate Package And Deployment Wizard and select it.

    Check the Load/Unloaded and Load On StartUp checkboxes.

    Click Ok.

    Now, under Add-Ins, you will see a menu item for the Package and Deployment Wizard.

    millertime,

    Here read Installation Problems from my signature. You could try ********** along with Inno Setup. This will work out better in the long run.
