I am doing a project in VB and MSAccess. I finished my project but now i need to create a standalone exe. That should run in any system without VB installed.
Currently I'm getting the following Errors:
run-time error : '713'
run-time error : '429'

That is 'Class not registered' and 'ActiveX can't create' something like that. I am using DBGrid, Data Control, DAO database connections, DTPickers.
As far I heard, MDAC_TYP.EXE must be installed. But it is coming around 7 MB. But I should produce an exe file less than 1.44 MB.
Please help me in solving this problem.

You can't create a stand alone exe with vb that doesn't require vb run-
time files. So you need to use an install packager like the Package and
Deployment wizard, or Inno, or visual studio installer, or any number of
other free or paid products designed to do the job. The size of the final
exe has nothing to do with the size of the install package. MDAC_TYP
won't be in the exe, it will be in the package.

If I create an installer using P&D wizard it is coming around 14 MB. But I need the installer to be fit in 1.44 MB floppy disk. Please help me in doing this.

I have no idea why it is coming out at 14mb but if you point people to
the microsoft web site to download and install their own copy of mdac
you can take that out of the install. The Package and Deployment
wizard does have the option to break up the install into 1.44mb chunks
too.
