Hello.

I have an application which has the use of another assembly. How can i make
a deployment project, which will be copy this assembly not to application
folder but system folder - depends on operating system (Windows\System - in
Win98, WinNT\System32 - in Win2000 ie.). I tried do this by move in
deployment project this assembly from application folder to System folder,
but when i install applicatiaon and try it run on, it throws an exception -
"..cannot find assembly" - or something like that. When i copy this assembly
back to the application folder, everything goes on, but i need it in Sysstem
folder.

Please Help.

Sorry for my english - i hope You understand my post.

Seba.
 
you have to install it to the system folder from installation because the os
will point to its original installation location. in the setup application,
you can specify special folders, like the system folder, to be the location
where the assembly should be installed...you won't have to worry about what
os on which you are installing...the setup program handles that for you.

hth,

steve
