Default package & deployment wizard in visual basic 6

Hello everyone!


I have compiled my vb project and found no problem about it. It worked well in my computer.
I made an installer or exe file of it using "package & deployment wizard in visual basic 6 to install it in another computer,



My problem is , after installing the application in another computer, when i try to run the app in the start menu, I always get this error message

-"C:\Documents and settings\owner\desktop\visual basic conversion proj' is not a valid path.Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are
connected to the server on which the file resides."

and 'C:\Documents and settings\owner\desktop\visual basic conversion proj' is exactly the location of my vbproject in my computer before I made an installer of it.


I don't know what's the problem.
Help me please!

Hi

If you are creating the appropriate folders in the target machine it should work. Can you please check if the folders are created in the machine where you install

Also please use relative paths in the program instead of hard coded paths

The following link would be useful

Cheers
Shasur
