Programs built with VDS are dependent upon the VDS DLL and sometimes can also be dependent upon the BMP Graphic Overlay with HotSpots or Click events.

Upon installation of the VDS program...can we install the VDS DLL to another location with an H Attribute and the BMP Graphic yet another location with H Attribute...and then tell VDS program where to locate the files needed to run.?

As in a path command for needed files?

Need your help on this thinking.

If you know where you put the files, you can call them, just by using the full path...

If your file is in c:\file
use
c:\bitmaps\bitmap1.bmp
to load the bitmaps...

The same thing with DLLs...

I was thinking too deep to see the obvious...
or maybe I wasn't thinking. Idea

I was stuck on the Path command and overlooked
the obvious.

It will work for the BMP but how will it work
for the vdsrun40.dll? Question

I have tried to no avail.

Thanks for the input.

There's only a few places where you can put the vdsrun30.dll/vdsrun40.dll >

Windows Directory
Windows System Directory
Current Directory (same dir as exe is in)
