Add the library "Microsoft.StdFormat" to the installer application, then build together.
Leave the Copy Local as true

Thanks for the prompt reply! <br />
<br />
Whats the difference if I set Copy Local as False? Isn't &quot;Microsoft.StdFormat&quot; part of the .NET install?<br />
<br />
And how come it wasn't picked up during compile ... what's this library used for anyway? <br />
<br />
Cheers. <br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I've compiled the codes and built an installer. The program works on my development machine. If I install on another test machine (fresh install) ... running the program causes this error:<br />
<br />
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.StdFormat, Version=7.0.33000.00&quot;. The system cannot file the file specified.<br />
<br />
Does anyone know how to fix this? Will adding the 'Microsoft.StdFormat' in References and setting False for Copy Local solve this problem? <br />
<br />
Any help is much appreciated ... thanks.

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.

Microsoft Development

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

An assembly language (or assembler language) is a low-level programming language for a computer or other programmable device in which there is a very strong (generally one-to-one) correspondence between the language and the architecture's machine code instructions. Each assembly language is specific to a particular computer architecture, in contrast to most high-level programming languages, which are generally portable across multiple architectures, but require interpreting or compiling. Assembly language is converted into executable machine code by a utility program referred to as an assembler; the conversion process is referred to as assembly, or assembling the code.
