Hi there,
Excuse for my basic question, but this is the first time I'm going to create a deployment package with Infragistics and WISE (v7)
So, my question is, after I take all the assemblies as listed by VS2008 (references) where should I place them on the target machine?
I mean on what folder they shoud go (win32, etc)
Do I have to instructo WISE to register all of them?
Any other special considerations for this first time?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Any assembly that all users have as part of the .NET framework, like System.Data.dll, you don't have to copy to the target machine. Any other assembly like Infragistics, you have to copy to the same folder where your program executable is, and you don't have to register anything.
Thanks Amiran for the answer.
When I select in WISE the exe, it automatically selects all Infragistics assemblies and put them on the GAC.
Should I bypass that step and select the app folder?
Thanks!
PS: I use System. Data.SqlServerCe.dll, should I place it on the app folder too?
I think the app folder is better. You can update the assemblies more easily, but maybe WISE developers don't agree.
If Data.SqlServerCe.dll is not part of the framework installed in the users machines, you can put it in the app folder. However, if you do that and a user will update his framework and this dll in the gac, your app will still use the old on you put in the app folder.
