I have fýnished my project which is using access database. I want to deploy
my project to another pc. However dot net framework should be installed on
destination PC. How can i add the dot net framework to my setup project? and
also i need to add mdac2.7 for win98 client.

Thanks a lot
 
The shortest and simplest answer is that you can't. You need to give your
clients (or put on the CD or get them to download) the dotnetfx.exe
redistributable for whichever version of the framework you're supporting.
That should be done first - you can't install this stuff onto Windows 98
from inside your setup project if your setup project requires Windows
Installer 2.0 and .NET infrastructure. This is why CD autoruns are useful -
they can get the prerequisites installed first, before your setup runs.

Installing MDAC on Windows 98 may have some prerequisites of its own - you
may need to try it on a Windows 98 system just in case it requires COM or IE
updates.
