Hello,

I don't understand your question. There was never a version 1.6 or 1.7 of Measurement Studio. If you are talking about your EXEs version then there is a question you have to ask yourself.

Did you upgrade Measurement Studio between your EXEs version? If so then you need to create another installer to upgrade not only your EXE but the Measurement Studio components on the system. If not then you should be able to just copy the newer EXE over the older EXE.

Sorry, in fact it was version 6 and version 7 of Measurement Studio.
My question must have been : if I install new exe with New Measurement Studio components. Which dll, ocx,... must I include in the installer.
For instance, If I only include cwui.ocx, mesa.dll, mfc42.dll, msvcrt.dll and register them in the installer (Since I only use CWGraph control from Measurement Studio) will it work properly or must I check other parameters?

If you are now using Version 7 of Measurement Studio with Visual Studio .NET 2003, you should follow the deployment guidlines in the help. Deployment has changed drastically between version 6 and 7. With Visual Studio .NET's new deployment capabilities things are much easier and you do not have to worry about registering or installing any of our stuff. You just include the correct installer merege modules, and your built project's output.

See the help:
ms-help://MS.VSCC.2003/NI.MeasurementStudio/Integration/static/Distributing_MStudio_Apps.html

The help topic outlines using the technology and what merge modules are necessary for what Classes you used in your application.
