Packaging and Deployment

Not too sure of what you are asking - I guess you want a neat way of specifying your database and connection parameters when installing the VB program. I would use either an XML file (if its a web app then a config file should be available) - shouldnt be too hard to set up parameters in an installer

Another way would be to use an ini file.

I've read the other entries so let me make sure I understand you correctly now. You have an application with a VB6 front end to a MSSQL database. You want to make an installation package to install your VB6 app along with the MSSQL database engine and database? I don't know how to do this with the package and deployment wizard built in to VB6. I'm pretty sure it can be done but I'm not the one that can tell you how. sorry.
