    Hello, I have my own application with uses msstdfmt.dll via "Data Format" property of Lable control. As i believe we can distribute VB runtime dll MSVBVM60.dll by including in our installable. I want to know whether is it ok to distribute msstdfmt.dll also? Otherwise the machine where my application is going to run needs to have VB installed. But i don't want to install VB. Instead of that if that machine is having this msstdfmt.dll and register then it will work. Can any one let me any legal articles found about this dll? best regards, kirrik

      Look in the Redist.txt file for VB6, it looks like it is under the REDISTRIBUTABLE CODE - Standard: Section.

          Googling it comes up with: This link http://technology.pitt.edu/userights/msoffice_dev_ed.pdf[^] 2.2 Redistributable Code-Standard. Microsoft grants you a nonexclusive, royalty-free right to reproduce and distribute the object code form of any portion of the Software listed in REDIST.TXT ("Redistributable Code").

              I would just windows installer to do the checking. That way you are not overwriting a newer version of the file
