Packaging a Program - halla - 24-09-2009 Ok my last question for a while. I made a program with nothing added thats not built into VB6. What do I have to include with it so that people without VB6 can run the program. Also if anything needs registered or anything whats the bat file to do it? Re: Packaging a Program - Anthony - 24-09-2009 It depends on the computer, some people have the files needed and registered and others don't. It also depends on what files your specific game requires to run. For a base MS4 you would most likely need to include these files in the client folder: dx7vb.dll MSWINSCK.OCX RICHTX32.OCX You can create a batch file in notepad which will register the files with this code: Code: @echo off Hope this helps. Re: Packaging a Program - GIAKEN - 24-09-2009 You put the /s after the file name. Re: Packaging a Program - Anthony - 24-09-2009 Oh >.< Fixed. Re: Packaging a Program - halla - 24-09-2009 Its not a game at all. Just a contract calculator made in VB6. Is there anything I need to include with that? Re: Packaging a Program - GIAKEN - 24-09-2009 Depends on what you use in your program. Re: Packaging a Program - halla - 25-09-2009 I didnt add anything in at all... its pretty basic just calculations and labels and text boxes so on Re: Packaging a Program - GIAKEN - 25-09-2009 Try to get them to run it and if they get errors, then install the runtimes... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/192461 Re: Packaging a Program - Rian - 25-09-2009 Is it possible to make an entire installer with a batch file? I tried making a batch that created a folder in the inside the Programs folder, and then tried moving a .png file to that folder, but I couldn't get the syntax right. Is there a way to make a desktop shortcut in a batch? Re: Packaging a Program - Matt - 25-09-2009 Rian Wrote:Is it possible to make an entire installer with a batch file?
