dot NET dependencies

Hello All,

I created an application in Visual Basic .NET . Now to install this application on any computer I need to install .NET 2.0 framework on that system.

How can I identify and package only those particular DLL on .NET on which my application is dependent?

Thanks,
Amit

re: dot NET dependencies

Pretty sure .NET is distributed as a whole.
You can make an installer for your project and list .net2.0 as the dependancy

re: dot NET dependencies

You should use an installer like Tarma installer or InnoSetup with script to detect and download .NET if not present on computer.
I'm starting using Tarma which seems to work fine. I use InnoSetup generally which works fine but less with Windows service.
