Subject: Visual Basic and other runtime files on Simtel.Net

[File: 00_info/runtimes.txt            Last revised September 3, 2000]

Simtel.Net has the VBRUN100.DLL, VBRUN200.DLL, and VBRUN300.DLL files
(all in separate .zip archives in the /win3/dll directory).

For the VB4 16-bit:

The blurb for your documentation:

  The VB4 runtime files needed for this program can be found at
  this URL:  http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/win3/dll.html

The latest VB4 runtime (along with others) is clearly identified on that
page.  The present listing is:

vb40016a.zip 1.2M   VB4 (16-bit) Runtime Modules. Self-installing 10-Sep-98

This recent upload adds the Wise install utility and its accompanying
remove capability.  The actual runtime files are the same as those in the
replaced vb40016.zip.  Following are the files in the Windows
self-installing executable.

** indicates install-related files, not the actual VB runtimes.

For the 32-bit (VB5 and vb40032) runtimes (all in the /win95/dll
directory):

We suggest that authors put the following statement in their package's
readme.txt file:

  The VR5 runtime files needed for this program can be found at
  this URL:  http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/win95/dll.html

The present listing is:

vb500a.zip   1.2M   VB5 Runtime Modules. Self-installing 22-Sep-98
vb40032a.zip 1.4M   VB4 (32-bit) Runtime Modules. Self-installing 10-Sep-98

And their contents:

vb500a.zip: This VB5 runtime package includes the Wise install utility,
which adds uninstall.  The runtimes are the same as in the replaced
vb5sp3.zip package.  Following are the files in the Windows self-
installing executable.

vb40032a.zip: This package provides full install and uninstall, plus adds
several 32-bit VB5 runtimes that programmers have been using with their
VB4 programs.  Thus the significantly larger size.  Following are the
files in the Windows self-installing executable.

At the current time we aren't requiring that authors leave out these
runtimes.  However another author elected to put his MFC runtimes in a
separate package, and we're going to maintain them indefinitely in our
/dll library for others to share.

So if you'd like to reduce your package's size significantly, you might
consider omitting these files and pointing your users to the Simtel.Net
package.

In the near future we will probably make omission of MFC runtimes
mandatory.

---

Again, we caution, do not point directly at specific file names but
instead at the Simtel.Net web page with the most current file listings
and descriptions.  File names may change without notice (especially the
newer packages such as VB6 and MFC42) as Microsoft updates its own
distributions.
