self executableHas anybody got any ideas on how to create a self executable in vb.net?
Thanks Frank What do you mean by "self executable" ? Do you mean a program that can
execute itself? You can try Process.Start to execute any program. Can you explain more?

Wagner M V P <URL:http://dotnet.mvps.org/> V B <URL:http://classicvb.org/petition/> I looked at those and they would probably suffice but it would be more
satisfying to write it in vb.net rgds Frank Show quoteHide quote "Herfried K.
