Re: Visual C++ Redistributable Jon, <g> And just to make it even more confusing, the "vcredist_x86.exe" version information is "6.0.2900.2180" (not "8.0.61001" and not "8.0.50727.5672"). So we always have to extract the files from the redistributable and dig through the internal sources to find out what version is really behind the redist. Why do it easy when you can complicate things <g> Friedrich

Re: Visual C++ Redistributable Thanks for that clarification! But why do you have to tell me that, when Microsoft could make it so much easier by putting that same info. on their web page? Regards, Jon Summers
Re: Visual C++ Redistributable By the way, the MS redistributable package includes files with the version stamp "8.0.50727.6195". But this is not directly related to the Product Version / RTM Product Version. The official Product Version is 8.0.61001 and the RTM Product Version is 8.0.50727.5672. Friedrich
Re: Visual C++ Redistributable Jon, Product Version 8.0.61001 (RTM Product Version 8.0.50727.5672) is the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package MFC Security Update" from Microsoft (code signed: Tuesday, May 17, 2011 7:16:45 PM). http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downl....aspx?id=26347 Friedrich
Visual C++ Redistributable My app. used Viz C++ v8 (Viz Studio 2005). When I look at this MSDN site (which is the most recent I can find on the Byzantine Microsoft web site) the package version is 8.0.50727.6195. When I add the Viz C++ v8 redistributable in SetupBuilder it shows the version as 8.0.61001. Where does that version come from?Is it compatible with 8.0.50727.6195? Regards, Jon Summers
