I have a Visual Basic project and want to make Setup Package file for it. I use Package and Deployment Wizard in Visual Studio.
It makes setup files, but give such error on installation:

-----
Invalid line in setup information file
Section 1: Setup files
@comdlg32.ocx; $(WinSysPath)...
-----

(I use Common Dialog component in my project)

Can you tell me the way how to make setup installation package?

in order to create an install-project U have to add all components required by your app.

in this particular case "comdlg32.ocx" component is not in a list of files to be installed.

Note that ActiveX components couldn't be simply copied during installation - they need registration on a client machine, too (read manuals).

hope this helps.

But I'm checking that component in list when making setup. How can I copy that ActiveX compnonent to client machine registry? I couldn't find it im manual

I'm not aware of events covered by MS VStudio Package and Deployment Wizard, but I guess yuo have to have the possibility to use "AfterInstall" event of all components u're installing.
So there you have to write shell-code like:

"regsvr32 <my_path_where_component_have_been_installed\>MyActiveX.ocx"

to unregister component (i.e. on Uninstall) use:
"regsvr32.exe /u MyActiveX.ocx"

try this.
