listviews and packaging

[nutstretch]

I am writing a program package that uses listviews to display information. I write this on my desktop and then transfer to my laptop to take to show the person I am doing it for.
When it has been copied all the listviews change to picture boxes. Is there anyway I can stop this happening and if not is it going to happen if I create a set-up file for installation on another machine. I like my listviews and would be unhappy to change the for something else.

Thanks for that. So do you propose using that installation programme instead of the wizard in VB6

nuts

yes!!!!
visual basic's Package and Deploymen Wizard sucks!!!!!
InnoSetup is much better, you have to write your installation, using a script, so you KNOW which files go where.
I think it is much better if you can make it move the files exactly where you want it.

thanks i'll try is it difficult?

a little bit at first, but it comes with a sample, that is already written, and all you have to do is modify the sample a little bit to your needs, and then compile it..
it will compress a 40kb program, and Msvbvm60.dll into about 950kb,
and Msvbvm60.dll is about 1.3 megabytes.
