All my clients have VB6.0 installed on their systems.
I developed application in VB.NET.How do I make sure that
my application will run on all client computers though
they don't have .NET installed on their systems ? 5 1311
It is possible that the installer will issue a message for you, I do not
know.
Just as an idea: You could write a little application in VB6. The user uses
this "startup" app to run your application. First thing it does is to look
for the .Net framework. If it is not there, do something friendly, like
download it from your LAN, or bring up a web page explaining what they
should do.
If the framework is there, call your application.
Deploy this VB6 app with your .NET app. If you 100% certain that every user
has VB6 installed, you won't have to include many files to make this happen.
On the other hand, it sounds like a small set of users... why not just put
out an FAQ page that explains the error message that they get when .Net
framework is not installed, and make available a link to DotNetFx.exe
Hope this helps,

You could also use the Visual Studio .NET Framework Bootstrapper Plug-in http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/W...a-d187d16f41f1
Setup projects in Visual Studio .NET 2003 can be used to install the .NET
Framework with your application, but only if you have installed the optional
Visual Studio .NET Framework Bootstrapper Plug-in on your development
computer. The Visual Studio .NET Framework Bootstrapper Plug-in modifies the
behavior of the Setup project's Bootstrapper property to include the .NET
Framework bootstrapper as well as the Windows Installer bootstrapper. The
..NET Framework redistributable is then packaged with your application; when
the user runs the bootstrapper setup.exe, it checks for the correct version
of the .NET Framework at install time and if necessary, installs it before
installing your application.

Hi Jan,
The OP did place this question in the dotnet language group also,
Is it maybe not wise if you place this answer also there for people as
Bernie, who did not see this answer maybe?

I agree, posting the same questions to multiple groups can make thing
difficult to follow...
