Hi,

I would like to distribute an application which I wrote to several clients. To do this I create a setup program with the MS-VB Application Setup Wizard. The problem with this is that the resulting application, installed on the clients site, which contains several DB Grids bound to a database(at design time), still looks for the database in the directory in which it was initially bound to. It obviously does not find it there and VB generates an error in return. How can I change my application so that it looks in the directory in which the user decides to install it to, instead of my directory (at home)?

I am not a pro with VB, so any advice is appreciated.

John
