  I have made some basic applications with Visual Basic  and Microsoft DTS

  tool and  I always have tried to make a setup program in order to install it

  in a PC with no SQL Server but always the program reports that it cannot

  create the object (DTS) So, is it possible to make a setup program and that program

  could register DTS libraries??

  or it always neccesary to install DTS tool in the PC which is going to use

  the program?.

  for example, there is a setup program named sqlredis.exe whic come with SQL

  SERVER CD and it is useful to install client libraries to basic conecction

  without to install the whole product.

  it would be possible to install a Visual basic program using DTS without to

  install DTS tool from the CD??

  I have searched for  information in the web, but nothing useful about this

  matter.

  Could you help me??

  Thanks a lot

  Should be able to do it, I haven't tried. If you're using an installer tool it should pick up the dependencies.
