Hi,
I'm trying to create a VB application based on a mysql database, and would like to know if there is a way i can integrate the database itself within the Deployment Package so that when i install the application on another computer, i dont have to manually install the database, but mthe installtion does all that for me.
Thanks alot!

Yes you can do it.

I use the VB5 setup package to build an install disk which contains not only the program but a database and 20 or so other files that are needed by the application and which go into various sub directories.

Run the program to build the install disk and one of the options is to add additional files and indicate where they will be installed.

If you need any more help please come back.
