Moving your Application Out to the Real Users April 3, 2005

First, what this book is not:
1. It's not a book on database design.
2. It is not a book on SQL or even on VB programming.
Instead, this is a book on deploying a solution after it is developed into a production environment. It is broken down into three major parts: Pre-implementation (Planning), Implementation, and Post-Implementation (Checking up with the end users).
Within these areas there are chapters on the tools available to help you manage installations. This includes the Setup Tools, Windows Installer, and the lite version of InstallShield which will make your installation process look very professional indeed and with only a small amount of work.
Obviously you aren't going to go to this much effort if you are just installing one copy in your own office. But if you are preparing something for installation at a few hundred or thousand branch offices around the country or the world, this is the only book I know of that provides the kind of help you will need. Besides that, it is very well done.
