Upgrading projects from VS2002 to VS2005
|

| I have attempted to upgrade a setup/deployment project to VS2005. However,
after doing so I realized that my Merge Modules directory now don't have a
lot of the msm files I was using when VS2002 was installed. Just not quite
sure whether there are altrenative files I should be using instead. The
missing msm files are:
Database_Access.msm
Database_Access_enu.msm
regwiz.msm
VC_CRT.msm
VC_STL.msm
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

In a VS2005 installation I have the latter 2 items in the Program
Files\Common Files\Merge Modules directory (with a host of other msm
files).

| Thanks for the reply David, but I guess the problem is that I don't seem to
have any of the files I've listed previously in the Program Files\Common
Files\Merge Modules directory, so the question is whether there are any
replacement version which is part of the VS2005 installation for them.

I've just checked on my clean installation, and that too is missing
those older merge modules - I must have had them before from having
previously installed older versions.
If you're building projects with VC8 then presumably you'll need to
modify the setup project to use the merge modules for VC8 anyway?

So, in its simplest form:
Are there equivalent msm files in VS8 to those I have listed previously?

I can't say definitively because I don't know.
The redist.txt file contains a list of available merge modules. Of the
one's you've mentioned, I can only see this one on my machine:
VC_CRT.msm Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x86.msm
