way to make program delete itself after it's run? i made program that was supposed to change registry key (to fix problem which would happen with one game) and after that was run, the program would be useless, so i was thinking if it could delete itself maybe?

Does anybody know if it's possible to make your program 'self-destruct' (delete itself) when it closes? I know this sounds like malware, but it's not. What happens is the user clicks 'install', the application copies itself to another directory, then the application starts the new copied file, with an argument that begins the installation, kills itself, and then the copied application restarts and then it's done. But I can't get rid of the original executable.

I have just watched a Microsoft tutorial at [URL]..It shows a simple dragging on of a dataset to a form with the biniding tools.
If I were to do the following:
Click Add button
Enter new data
Click Save Button
Click Delete Button

It appears that the Save button must be clicked after the delete button has been clicked. Is this the way it is designed to be or have I got some settings wrong somewhere else ?

I've reached the end of my project but I have several unused and not needed .xsd files from trial and error of linking my program to a database. I want to clean up a bit and get rid of them while keeping only the essential files attached to this program. I tried deleting the .xsd files but it seems too ingrained into the program to the point where the program has several errors and just breaks. I have to manually restore the files from the Recycle Bin to get the program to start working again.
What are other solutions to get these files out of the project? I thought about clicking "Exclude From Project" but am afraid of the consequences. I figured I'd check with someone here before taking action.
I get the following error message whenever I press the delete button in my program.
