Hi Gregg,

Was wondering if your a vb.net author and have access to vb.net 
enterprise?  There is a wizard for building distro's of the programs one 
writes. It comes with enterprise but not the standard edition.  I now 
have at least two projects that I can't deliver because I can not build 
a install program for them.

if vb.license.violation = false then
     would you be willing to send me the wizard?
elseif vb.license.violation = true then
     would you be willing to build a couple of GNU projects?
end if

--j
