Dear friends
Thanks for viewing this thread. I made application in which I have two executable files one developed using VB6 and other VC++. Now I want to make installable package for it.
1 Is it better to use Package and deployment wizard available with MSDN and I add VC++ exe and its dependencies like (mfc42.dll , msvcrtd.dll) manually in to it ? please write me your opinion .
2 I want to install one file in C:\temp root, which is required to show user my input example. How I can achieve this without asking user to copy it in to location?
3 Is it ok that dependencies dll files like (mfc42.dll , comdlg32.ocx etc.) to be installed in my application folder and not in WinSyspath as some times I get registry errors ? Here I would like to know that in such situation my application will use which dll ( dll in my application folder or winsyspath folder)?
As I am new to software development your help will be highly appreciated. If you have some literature in this are please share it with me .
