Problem while deploying VB.Net application on Windows 98 system

[kelahcim]

Hi,

we are trying to deploy .Net application on Win98 system.

While it is run at WindowsXP (development environment) there is no problem
with getting it started.
When moved into Windows 98 system, it crashes with information entered
below:
Application has generated an exception that could not be handled.

Process id = 0xffc95201 (-3583487), Thread id = 0xffc8854d (-3635891).

Getting into debug mode is not possible because there is no JIT debugger
installed on the machine.

We are using JET 4.0 connection to *.mdb files, ChartFXLite components, and
Excel automation (every dll introduced into Project by VS .Net is present at
application directory after instalation)

Is there any way to find out what is the problem in that case? Or what is
missing?
Why there is a problem at all?
Thank's in advance

Ok. I have found the problem by adding TRY CATCH block into SUB Main of
Form1.

It turned out that .Net applications need MDAC version not less then 2.6 and
previously installed version had number 2.5.

Hope somebody else will save his time while reading this one.

I prefer to provide the new version in the application's setup program,
so the user doesn't need to worry about that.
