langals,
 
Please do not double post.

Hi there  
 
I have done quite a bit of reading on installing vb applications with components, but I still do not know the best option to take.  
 
My application relies on various system32 files which are shipped with various windows products or other microsoft products.  
 
I have read about the danger of replacing components in the system32 directory in case there are other applications which rely on the older components.  
 
I have read that it is also possible to put components in the app directory (and not register) and include a .local file to put the application to these local files. But would this be a problem if there is the same version of the file in the system32 directory?  
 
here are the components which my app needs:  
 
comct332.ocx  
comct332.ocx  
mscomct2.ocx  
COMCTL32.OCX  
COMCT232.OCX  
COMDLG32.OCX  
MSWINSCK.OCX  
MSSTDFMT.DLL  
MSHFLXGD.OCX  
MBSplit.ocx  
mscomctl.ocx  
Msflxgrd.ocx  
MSINET.OCX  
rtcdll.dll  
wininet.dll  
asycfilt.dll  
COMCAT.dll  
FlexlistBox.ocx  
Msado20.tlb  
Msvbm60.dll  
oleaut32.dll  
olepro32.dll  
stdole2.tlb  
VB6STKIT.dll  
 
Any advice here would be welcome  
 
many thanks
