deployment & pictures

I have a program that works with photos like this: it is told where to find the photos and it goes finds them and puts it in a word file. The user now says that the photos will always be in the same folder - in the folder where the exe of the program resides in. This seems easy to do but, when i install my program on the users computer i use the "deployment" feature and install the exe on the users computer. now if i do App.Path & "\ " & "svn.jpg" will it know to go find it in the exe folder? do i have to do something to make sure that the photos get deployed with the program? Is deploying a program the best way to install a program on a user computer? Am i making any sense?

Thanks! svn

When you try to access it through app.path & "\" & "svn.jpg", it will always look for the image in the installed folder of you app. So when you create a VB6 SEtup for your app, it will install the images in the same folder of your app.

Does that help?
