about .Net software???????????

[vijju]

hi,

iam working as a SoftwareEngineer in a company.we are basically into software development.

presently we had the Visual Studio Enterprise Edition.

we are developing software for clients using the VB6.0 Enterprise edtion.

when ever i want to load the custom software,i will do packaging with VB package and deployment wizard and i will install the software into client's system.there in client system we need not require VB 6.0

now we are trying to buy the VisualStudio.NET

now my doubt is if start developing my application using VB.NET then how should i load into my client system,where there is not .Net Software.

could i use the same P&D wizard in VB.Net like in VB6.0 to bundle my software and load it into my client place where i need not require VB.Net.

please tell me,is it OK to buy the .NET software...

regards
varma

Your client will need the .Net runtimes, these are not included in the P& D tool. They have to be loaded onto the client separetly

I just reads the rest of your post.... "please tell me,is it OK to buy the .NET software... "

That's up to you, you can start reading this http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dndotnet/html/actxvnetcontrols.asp from MS.

Actually a setup and deployment project does allow the option to include the .net redistributable with your package. The only concern is that your client machines must support it which would be win98/me, win nt/2k or winxp.
