Distributing c# app with ActiveX control
-
I am building a simple test application in c# that uses the Flash player ActiveX control to display some data. I have two Classes in c#: FooWindow.cs Foo.cs I then embed the Flash player in my app in visual studio. When I compile everything, it creates the following files: AxInterop.ShockwaveFlashObjects.dll Interop.ShockwaveFlashObjects.dll stdole.dll Foo.dll FooWindow.exe This all works perfectly on my machine, but when I send it to other people to test, they get various errors. I am sending all of the files. Do I have to do anything special to distribute an app which uses an ActiveX control? Thanks for any input... mike c

When distributing C# apps, you have to make sure A) They have the .NET framework installed (only newest XP has it installed default), and B) Do they have the right version of .NET installed. I have found that 1.0 and 1.1 executables are not interchangeable (which is a bit dissapointing).

Yes. Thus far, I have sent it to three people, and it didn't work for any of them. They all have the same version of the flash player also. mike c
