Hi Jeff,

I wish this was the case, however it isn't. after trying to deploy the app
to various machines with different apps it would appear the the app will
only work on machines which have VS.NET fully installed... whether visio
was installed or not did not make a difference.

This is annoying because the machine this app needs to be installed on does
not have VS.NET installed only the redistributable package (the .NET CLR)
and we can't justify purchasing another VS license just to run an app.

I think this is going to be a case for Microsoft... MSDN licenses are
wonderful things at times!

cheers for the help

Lee
