The data files are all text files. Without using SQL or outside apps, can this be done thru vb.net?

View 1 RepliesI'm a beginner. I recently developed an application in C#. Now I wanna develop its setup. I read a few articles online, followed them, found it very easy. I also changed the default location of application folder from C:Program Files to C:. My application folder is containing a few folders besides exe and dlls which I added manually.
Now here the problem starts, when I install the application and change the location say from c: to d:, my files (all files including exe and dll) are going to user's given location. But my folders (all folders in application folder) are going to c: (which is default location given while creating setup). But I want output files and that folders at same location

View 3 RepliesI am trying to install VB 2010 Express, but the installation stalls during ENU setup with the message that a certain product must be uninstalled. The product listed is:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional Beta 2 - ENU.
I did try the 2010 Professional but gave up on it. I deleted as many files in those folders as I could. I found the file listed above in the Programs & Features list. When I try to delete it by right click, it opens up a Maintenance Mode Setup wizard. If I follow this it requires me to subscribe to the Professional system, which I don't want to do. I also have run MS Visual Studio 2010 Uninstall Utility, but the new installation stalls at the same place with the same message.
I posted this on the Deployment forum, but you guys reply so much faster
