    Files needed for a VS2005 project

    I have a simple database application (VB) which works over an access file (.mdb). Which files do I need (other than the .exe and .mdb) to make it work in other computers as well?

    Hey,

    As far I am aware, assuming that the computers that you are deploying to have got the correct version of the .Net Framework installed, all you should need to deploy are yous exe and the mdb file.

    Hope this helps!!

    If you have the Express version of VS then you would want to use ClickOnce. If you have the other versions then you will want to add a Setup Deployment project to your solution and create your installation package. The .NET framework detection and versioning are done in there too.

    Check out this forums FAQ for a step by step walk through guide.

    I was one of the co-authors of the FAQ so yea my eyes were open. Just meant that I assumed everyone knew I was talking about this AD forum and not entire VB Forums site in general.
