I developed a VB.Net application on VS2008 .Net 3.5 that accesses as SQL Server 2005 database on a remote server. I added a setup project and requested "Content Files", "Localized resources" and "Primary Output" for the application folder. I installed the application from the Setup.exe of the setup project on a client under a administrators id. then signed on as the user and ran the application. I got a hourglass for a couple seconds then nothing. After several hours trying to figure out what was wrong, in desperation we installed VS 2008 on the client and now the application runs!!!
My questions 1) what does VS 2008 install on the client that the app needs to run?
2) why didn't the setup project detect all dependencies the application required and install them??
Help please
