RE: Digest Number 2156

I wish that I was an expert, instead of an amateur beginner, but here goes!

A small program that I have written, using XP and VB6, is working fine with
those who have Vista. The only thing is that Vista contains updated versions
of some files that are included by the Package and Deployment Wizard. A
Third Party should be advised NOT to allow the Vista versions to be
overwritten.

I want to update some older apps to ensure they will work with Vista.
I understand there are a couple things I need to change, but I would
like to verify this.

1. I heard that an app installed by a standard user cannot write to
the installation directory, so that I should move my config.ini file
to %APPDATA% in a program specific folder. If so, what is the correct
syntax for the Open statement for saving? Would this work?

Open "&quot; & APPDATA & "Appnameconfig.ini" For Output As #1

2. I also heard that an app run as a standard user cannot write to the
registry. Is this true?

3. What VB6 support files are included in Vista, and therefore not
needed in the installation script?

Larry
