Hi everyone,
I have developed a simple ACCESS application for my company. Because it has to be installed in several terminals I thought it'd be wise to make some kind of setup package.
I found that interesting article: Writing Setup Packages for Your Access Databases (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa139957(office.10).aspx). But I must admit I'm kind of lost.
The Question:
Which program should I use to create the setup package?
Can you tell me the precise steps to create it?
Do I do it from Orca? Where do I get it?
Do I have to install this huge Windows SDK?
What's the purpose of the windows SDK? What can you do with it?
Is there a simple alternative to Windows installer 2.0? what about install shield wizard?
I have Visual Studio express C# and VB.NET. I don't think this helps at all.
If you think all that is just jibberish, please ignore it and give me some tips.
Thanks again!
