setup project in VS 2003

Should I post this message here or is there a different group.

Thanks
----------------------------------------------------------------

I created a setup project in VS 2003 to deploy a windows application.
I'm able to run that installer in any windows xp m/c, when I try to install
the setip in a vista m/c, it goes all the way and hangs at the end.

I tried to create a small setup project in vs 2005 and I was able to run the
setup in vista machine.
So I'm wondering if there are any patch / fix for VS 2003 to run in vista?

Thanks for your help.

You can't run VS2003 on Vista, but you should be able to run an application
you created in VS2003 on Vista. At least, that's what I've heard.

Do you have .Net 1.1 installed on the Vista machine?

Try running the installer with verbose logging turned on. It's:
msiexec /package MyMsi.msi /lv

That should at least point to the specific point causing the hang

When I build a setup project, the dependency in the setup project is tied to the version in which it was built. Is there a way to build a setup project that can be used in both versions of the Framework? There is provision to build the app's .exe so that the .exe can be used in either version of the framework, is there not a way to do this for the setup project? I looked at the options, did not find any. Did I miss something? --

Hi, I have created a windows application which uses Microsoft.mshtml.dll for displaying browser window in the application for showing html. When I am creating a setup program, I have to include Microsoft.mshtml.dll in the Setup project. I am using VS 2003 Setup program and my app is in C#. Now the problem is the size of this dll is around 7.6 MB, so the size of setup program is huge.
