Topic: Deploying my project

Hi All,
-
Now that my first project is almost finished, I would like to deploy it.
-
From what I understand the project folder can be copied to any location on a users computer.  That's no problem for folks who understand computer file structures.
-
But what about for folks who are computer-challenged?
Is there a batch file that you might use to deploy the application?
Where do you suggest to install the project on the new computer?
I assume that the project does NOT need to be installed like a regular Windows application?
I could write some instructions telling folks to install it in the users Document folder but that could be challenging for some folks?
-
Any thoughts on deploying my project will be appreciated.
Thanks, Frank

Re: Deploying my project

Thank you Brian & Domebil,

I'm in the process of checking out INNO and will also take a look at  Install Creator.

One other question: Should I exclude my Records.vlb file from the deployed final product?
I think I read somewhere that it is only needed when you have an installed version of MVD.

Thanks for your feedback.
