Thanks. I'll give your method a try. Could you please post/email any code you used to do this?

>>How do I include a couple of barcode fonts in the setup, so they are installed with the application? I tried copying them into the source directory, but there was no option to install them into the Windows\Fonts directory of the target PC. I tried including them in the project, but the setup wizard doesn't see them as files to be included separately. I also tried to add them to the project but leave them excluded. This didn't work either. Help!!!

The final resolution was to build it into the application itself and when it was run the first time, I checked for the existance of the fonts on the system and if they weren't there then copy them over and display a message to the user to reboot their pc so the fonts would automatically register themselves when windows restarted.
