    I was trying to install a program onto another computer, but the setup was aborted because the target computer did not have the .NET framework. During deployment, there was a warning that said "WARNING: This setup does not contain the .NET Framework which must be installed on the target machine by running dotnetfx.exe before this setup will install. You can find dotnetfx.exe on the Visual Studio .NET 'Windows Components Update' media. Dotnetfx.exe can be redistributed with your setup." I've located that dotnetfx.exe on the component CD, but DOES ANY COMPUTER THAT I WISH TO INSTALL MY APPLICATION REQUIRE THE INSTALLATION OF THE .NET FRAMEWORK? If so, what is the proper procedure on including that file into my setup? also, is there anyway around installing the .Net Framework. Thank you for your time.

      The way to work around the dotnetfx.exe install is to not use .NET.:rolleyes::mad: Of course the Framework has to be on each client you want to run your code on.:rolleyes:

        So...Would I have to include just the .exe file? Or would you have to actually include the whole cd as well? The Jazz Master 6000 DJ Badknees Parma Grind Crew - www.geocities.com/parmagrindcrew

          In order to run a .NET application on a computer, the framework must be installed. Microsoft offers a reditributable form of the .NET framework on their website (search for framework redistributable). Also, the framework redistributable can be incorporated into your setup file if you created it with VS.NET. Just look around for an option to include the framework redistrib. -- Adam "If you can't beat your computer in chess, try kickboxing"
