color=#0000ff size=2>BTW, this is one of the things that .NET is
supposed to bring to the table, no more overwriting system
DLLs. Since the runtime for .net is only about 20 megs,
you can literally "xcopy" an entire copy of your system,
complete with the runtime that you use, into a specific
directory and tat is what is used for your app. You don't
overwrite other peoples stuff, they don't overwrite
yours.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Slightly OT: Installation protocol<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>I'd
like to know from you who install your VB apps on other
people's machines whether it's normal practice to overwrite
system dll's that are older than the one you're sending out,
without asking or telling? A user here installed a demo which
installed a version of oleaut32.dll. Their version was newer
but it stll messed up my Access app, specifically where it
talked to Outlook. Do I have a grouse?<BR><BR>--<BR>Andy
