SUMMARY
=======
A new section named [Do Not Redistribute] has been added to the VB6Dep.ini file
that is used by the Package and Deployment Wizard (PDW) to build a Visual Basic
6.0 application distribution set.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The following kinds of files are listed under the new section:
- Files that are not needed at run-time and have no dependencies of their own.
-and-
- Files that cannot be redistributed by the PDW due to Microsoft redistribution
policy. For example, the Microsoft Internet Controls (Shdocvw.dll) cannot be
distributed using the PDW.
When the PDW creates a distribution set for a Visual Basic 6.0 application, it
checks VB6Dep.ini for any dependency of the files that are included in the set.
It will specifically exclude the files listed under the [Do Not Redistribute]
section when building the set.
