Linda,

>I created the deployment project and only put the MM .NET assemblies in there. Are you suggesting that I should build a program that doesn't have anything in it except a deployment project? Wouldn't I at least have to have a main form?

Not really...I just want to see if it will deploy the MM .NET assemblies into the GAC with a minimal installation.

>I can try to create the deployment package on the XP machine but I haven't had much luck getting the VS client to install on it. If you think XP is the problem, I can try it on a Windows 2000 machine and see if I have any better luck. I don't think this client is running XP. I was just using that computer because it didn't have any versions of Visual Studio.

I was actually guessing that your development machine might be the problem rather than the target computer. We've had lots of folks creating deployment packages that work great on Windows XP machines.

Best Regards,
