Hey all,

My application uses the Common Dialog control, and a Access database to store some data.

Currently the installer is copying these files to the system32 folder:
asycfilt.dll
COMDLG32.DLL
ComDlg32.ocx
msjint35.dll
msjter35.dll
ole32.dll
oleaut32.dll
olepro32.dll

Now, I wan't to make my app setup smaller, do I really need all those extra files?
Can i remove any of the files from my setup?

Would be happy for a quick answer :)

which kind of installer are you using?

I'm using Advanced Installer, but considers to change to Inno Setup.

Hope someone can help!

I do not know either of them
What I usually do is open the References dialog, and I start unchecking libraries one per time, and every time try to compile the app. If the application does not compile, add the reference back.
For the controls is much easier, because VB will tell you if you uncheck a control that is in use.
The installer should install only the libraries and controls that are referenced.

I do this often, because is not uncommon, especially in big applications, that some component gets obsolete. There are third party components that do this job automatically, but I do not find it worth the money.
