Depends on how you are installing the application. Are you using the VB setup &nbsp;or a third party installation product (InstallShield, etc?). Either way,if this is happening during the installation, chances are that you are trying to overwrite a system DLL. You probably are not going to want to do that (at least not without saving the old version, just in case).<br />

You can uncheck the DLL in the Package &amp;&nbsp;Depl. wizard. Since it's already on the destination machine there's no need to install it ! (unless your version is newer)<br />

Good luck !<br />

Installation is the act of making a computer program program ready for execution. Because the process varies programs often come with a specialized program responsible for doing whatever is needed for their installation. Installation may be part of a larger software deployment process. Cross platform installer builders that produce installers for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux include InstallAnywhere, InstallBuilder and Install4J. Installers for Microsoft Windows include Windows Installer, InstallShield, and Wise Installation Studio; free installer-authoring tools include NSIS, IzPack, Clickteam, InnoSetup, InstallSimple and WiX. Mac OS X includes Installer, and also includes a separate software updating application.

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
