Publishing a Vb program to CD with Access Database

[Baladin]

Hi, I have a program that I need to publish to a installation CD, I can get that to work but i wont take the Database (MS Access (.mdb)) with it, is it possible to do so or will i have to copy it manually?

Oh using Vb Express 2008

Hi ,

In VB 6 there is Package & Deployment wizard. While Setting the Setup It will ask any other file to be include. There u can add that mdb file. Remind that if ur program using App.path basis. or not. If the database is in app.path format then the application will work. After completion of the Deployement the mdb file will be available in Support Folder. Try it if you are using VB6.
