Re: VB6 Application Deployment

Visual Installer from Microsoft (free):
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/tools/vsi11/default.aspx

Innosetup from JR Software (free):
http://www.jrsoftware.org/

If using Inno Setup check out ISTool at http://www.istool.org/

What is ISTool?
"ISTool helps you create scripts for Jordan Russell's Inno Setup compiler.
Inno Setup is a great compiler for very professional looking setups, and the
only disadvantage is that you have to create fairly complex scripts by
hand."

Could someone share any ideas on the best way to deploy a vb6 application
with MS Access database and which installer package to use?

Thanks.
