Hi Chris, and all who have taken the time to answer.
I've programmed in all
VB versions since 3.0 and ASM, Basic, etc
before that. I'm not really up to speed on .Net though. But, building
installation packages is one of my least favorite things to do. That's
likely not to be a problem for those of you that are creating Excel
applications for your own use but . . .
For those that are creating apps for others, are install packages
often needed or does the normal Office install suffice? How do you
handle the installation of any dll's, Db's, or? Do you do onsite
installs yourself or do you give complete install packaes to your
clients?
Your experience will be helpful to me and will be appreciated
Thank you all again for being willing to help.

Don,
Doing Excel work you are close to the user. It can be frustrating as 'big
systems' events can pull the carpet from under your feet & trying to untangle
spaghetti that other 'developers' have built in the past can be a nightmare
... however that also suggests that there is some mileage in it as (at least
one strand to) a career.
Regards,
Chris.
