Hi all
I have a .net bundle (MSI installation package) that my client (.net
user) will download to his computer threw the internet,

The main problem is this package size! It's something between 4 – 8
MB!!

The size problem is because of the MSHTML.DLL that is attached to the
package,
Is there any possibility to reduce the MSHTML size?
It's a dynamic library how can I extract only the necessary functions
& constants from it?

Thank you very much
Sharon.

Is MSHTML.dll the interop library or the actual DLL file for MSHTML? If
it is the actual dll file, you should not be bundling it with your
installation, instead it will be picked up from the clients system.

That's not true. The Microsoft.mshtml.dll PIA comes with VS.NET
and has to be deployed, because the .NET-redist doesn't contain
it.
 
Hi Sijin
We use the MsHtml as interop lib in our Project,
And the linkage is huge,
Any Idea ?

Thank you !
Sharon
