VB 6 Application installer
I wrote a software using <B>VB6 and access </B>is the back end. I used Package creation tool of vb6. but it seems not good one like we use other software in our pcs. It does not have any uninstaller for unloading the software. Please provide me a list of some good and free installer for Vb6 application.

Thanks in advance

The Visual Studio Installer is free from MS if you own VS. It creates msi installation packages and although you can't do as much as InstallShield or Wise, the VS Installer is quite functional for basic installations.

about VB Installer
That's good reply. The problem with VB Installer is it does not have any uninstaller option in the program menu. so the user need to go to Add/Remove Program to Uninstall the program. I did a quick search for Wise Installer. It came out it has evaluation copy not the full version. Any help regarding this about the full version.


Thanks

What reply are you referring to? If mine, the visual studio installer is not the vb package & deployment installer. You can download the vs installer from ms but it's not distributed with visual studio 6
