VB6 has it's own built in setup wizard as I recall (been so long). Failing that, you can always use any of the other setup creation utilities. This has nothing to do with language.

Solution 2

Take a look at innosetup[^]. It is a free tool to create installers.

If (just in case) what you want is to create an exe file from your program, then look here[^].

Good luck.

there is number for file is there what ever like u have given which one is good for me and can i create exe file by the help of this link

Joan M 15-Aug-12 14:42pm

The second link is a youtube video which shows step by step how to compile and how to create an exe file with VB6.
The first link is a link to a free installer software.
I've posted both because I've not understood properly which one of those options you need. If I were you I would take a look at the video, which is the easiest and it is possible that help you to achieve what you want, if the video is not helping you as it is too basic and it is not what you are interested in, then take a look at the first link, there are plenty of examples there and it is a good product.
hope this helps. ;)
