.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm General / January 2007Client Location of Published Application
When using the Publish Application option in a Windows form application in VS.Net 2005 to a file share, the client successfully installed it on their pc and can run the application. However the application.exe file can not be found on the pc and the start menu shortcut does contain a string that has file share\MyApp.application,plus some other settings. The publish option available offline was used. Using this deployment method where is the executable file located that the client uses? Is it possible to install the executable file on the client pc using the publish deployment method? >When using the Publish Application option in a Windows form application >in VS.Net 2005 to a file share, the client successfully installed it on [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >Is it possible to install the executable file on the client pc using >the publish deployment method?

If you would like a complete explanation of how they work, Try looking at "Smart Client Deployment and ClickOnce" by Brian Noyes. Published by Addison Wesley. Or search for ClickOnce at http://www.msdn2.com. Good luck with your project, Otis Mukinfus http://www.arltex.com http://www.tomchilders.com There is nothing in the application data folder related to the application. I am just reading the following MSDN article about ClickOnce which may explain the new features http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/04/05/clickonce/default.aspx > >When using the Publish Application option in a Windows form application > >in VS.Net 2005 to a file share, the client successfully installed it on [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > http://www.arltex.com > http://www.tomchilders.com Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
