Problem with Deployment. Pls help

[tuckkieteddy]

Hi

I'm trying to deploy my application but got stuck with this problem.

In my program I need to use a file that I put it in my project folder.

Here's a bit of code

Dim init_dir As String = Application.Sta rtupPath
xsltFile = init_dir & "\DrawingStyleS heet.xsl"

This works fine as long as I run on my own computer, but when I publish the whole project and install on other machine it will prompt error says that it could not find that file.

My question is

How can I attach a file with my application when I publish it?

Many thanks,

Ted

I tried to add the xslt file to the project by doing this:

Add new >component..>xs ltFile

and I set the property to be Embeded Resource.

However, the problem's still occurred..

You can use any installer softwares like Wise Installer , Ghost installer etc to create an installer for your application and have that xls file included
