I am considering creating a small utility to limit some display properties
on a computer.
This would be installed on 1000+ computers that may or may not have the .NET
2003 framework installed. Is it possible to create a "one click" install
package with all the custom settings pre-set?
Or, should I conider another language (besides VB.NET) to complete this
task?
Thanks in advance,

You could include the .NET re-distributable package in the installation and
have it conditionally install itself depending on whether it's already on
the target machine.

That sounds like a good start.
I created a new setup project, and in Detected Dependencies I included
dotnetfxredist_ x86_enu.msm.
When I tried to build the project, I get an error:
dotNETFXRedist_ x86_enu.msm must not be used to redistribute the .NET
Framework. Please exclude this merge module.
What on earth could that mean?
Also, I think if I figure out how to include the .NET framework I will still
be a long ways off from a "one click installation." Is this an attainable
goal before Whidbey?

Perfect!
Is it possible to package all this stuff in one executable, setup.exe?
I am planning on distributing over the web, and want to keep it simple.

Hi, I have the following version of DB2 installed on a server:
FP9a_WR21350_WSE.exe
I have 2 client computers with the DB2 Admin version
FP9a_WR21350_ADMCL.exe
I need to install the DB2 client on a third computer. Can I simply
install the fixpak by itself or do I have to first install the admin
client separately then install the fixpak on top of it? I think the
version number I have is DB2 V8.1.5.449.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
