Application Packaging

[Guest]

Hi,

I have an Access 2002 database that I wish to 'package' and distribute.
What do I need to do to achieve this. Any help greatly appreciated.

Generally you'd use an Installer, like Inno Setup (free), Wise or Installshield ($$). This allows you to register
ActiveX controls, build shortcuts and Start menu programs, include uninstallation routines if needed, etc etc.

If it's a simple program, and all you want to do is just drop a copy on a user's desktop without shortcuts, etc, then
you can Zip it and send it ...
