Package Problem

I am using the package and development wizard to create a setup application for my program. My exe file is only 88KB but when I use the package and development wizard, it comes out being 9 mb. If I remove the MDAC_TYP.EXE file from the setup, then it brings it down to 2 mb which is much better. The MDAC_TYP.EXE file intalls all nessacary ado, oledb, and odbc files. The only database my program needs is a MySQL database. I downloaded the MySQL oledb, which I thought would take care of it. When I run the program after seting it up on a different computer I get this error "Class does not support automation or does not support expected interface". What is the problem, and is there any other way to make the size of the setup program smaller?

You need to include MDAC_TYP.EXE if you want other machines to use databases otherwise all your DAO/ADO code will NOT work.

So unless the desired functionallity has already been installed on the target machines you need to include all the necessary databases DLLs
