hai,
i developed a vb project(used ms access as my back end) in my desktop.when i want to run the project in some other system is it enough to copy only the exe file?i guess that will not be enough.we have to copy the database also and set the path again when running it in other system.if i make any mistake please do correct me.thanks in advance.
