Hi,

I am getting ready to distribute a VB.NET program for sale to certain local
chapters of a national organization which have expressed interest in having
a database application specifically written for their operations.

Seeing as though the vast majority of the local chapters do not have
internet access in their offices I need to ask the question, is it within
license parameters for me to include the .NET framework version 1.1, MDAC
2.7 and the Jet Database Driver on the CD with my executable? It just isn't
practical for them to download it themselves.

Regards
 
The following link has a lot of information about rebistrbuting v1.1 of the
framework.

To distribute DotNetFx.exe you need to have a valid Microsoft .NET
Framework SDK (or Visual Studio .NET) license. The article also addresses
your concerns about MDAC, etc.

I hope that this helps.
