Hi guys,

after we developed and tested the application in VB6 we had a menu option
that was Publish, Know in VB.NET we don't!

the only thing that pop up to my mind is, as this is developed for .NET
framwork, all we need to do is copy the EXE and past it in othever computer
we need and install .NET framwork for distribuition in that computer....
but! (there's always a but somewhere)...

How to create a nice installation package without 3rd parties to join that
EXE with our MSDE and all that we need to join??? in VB6 it was fantastic...
but How can I manage this in VB.NET 2003?

You obviously haven't seen the Setup Wizard in the Setup and Deployment
projects...

Add a new project to your solution, choose a setup and deployment project,
choose the setup wizard, follow the instructions.

Hi Bob,

I opened my Project but I can't find any Setup and Deployment in my menus...

all I have under Project Menu is:
Add Windows Form
Add Inherited Form
Add User Control
Add Inherited Control
Add Component
Add Module
Add Class
-----
Add New Item
Add Existing Item
----
New Folder
----
Show All Files
----
Unload Project
----
Add Reference
Add Web Reference
Set as StartUp Project
----
Properties

Nothing more... :(

Hi,

In Solution Explorer, Right Click on Your Poject.

Go To Add >>>> New Project >>> Select "Setup and Deploymnt Projects" Then
you will probably want "Setup Wizard"
