setup file
 

i have a database application ,, and i want to create a setup file

my first question is

is it possible to create a setup file if there is a database in it

my second question is

can somebody show me how to create a setup file


thx

yeah you can do it
in light-providers (like access) is very easy writing this programs
in client/server providers (like SQL) you should configure database-manager on
users computer!

to creating a setup in VS2005:
add a new project to your database application from setup & deploy group.
right-click on setup project files list and add your project output to setup maker.
add some shortcut and other things you want.
if
you worked with datasource connection (add database to project) you don't see any problem
else
add database file to setup maker
set it's path to program instaltion path
end if '!
create your setup
