I've got a .exe that used to package and deploy and be transferable. Now with deployment, MS offers a message box that my test computer doesn't have some files and Windows is going to have to restart and load the files. Yeah sure. Do that and try to install again gets the same message and of course the message doesn't indicate what files are missing. I don't know where to start on a fix for this... being that I'm not very VB6 literate. I did add an .ico (icon) file to the project. I don't think that I made any code changes that would require a reference change. I also replaced some resource files. Perhaps I need to know if the .ico file has to be added as a resource or is it added to the project during P&D? It's in the support file. I don't get it. If anyone can offer suggestions on a fix, I would very much appreciate it as my glad as turned sad. Dave
edit: forgot to mention that I can't seem to get rid of the .ico to trial re-packaging without it
