devenv.exe is still 32-bit, so it makes sense to push VS' IDE into the x86 folder. But nothing in my app will get a *32 after it in Task Manager. It will use 64-bit ODBC aliases on x64 systems. And it will use 32-bit ODBC aliases on x86 systems. Personally, I do not mind so much concerning the placement. This particular package is supposed to be installed on servers. If they were my servers, I'd probably end up installing it in a completely different location. My non-developer testers have actually commented on the placement (x86). No biggie though. -- Rune ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
