Missing some DLL file

Hi all,

I would like to ask some questions.
One is I am facing file missing problem after removing the VB installer. Eg: 'COMCT232.OCX', 'MSCOMCT2.OCX' OR 'MSSTDFMT.DLL'. I don't know how to solve that problem. When I run exe File, it will show a message like above file aren't registered. If I close the message box, the application will be automatically closed.
My friend give me some suggestions. After finishing my project, you can do it as the package file. If so, some file will not be lost. But, I don't know how to do it. Is there anyone to explain about the package file?

Best Regards,
zawpai

Hi Jx,

I have already tried with 'Package and Deployment Wizard' as you told me. After creating that, I saw a package folder that is including some related files and setup file.
If I execute the exe file in another file, will i need to install or setup file first before I start to run my program?

Thanks,
zawpai
