Small footprint XP app

Hi,

I'm developing a small WinForms application, targeted for Win XP. I thought
that Win XP had the .NET framework already installed, but it looks like it
doesn't.

Is there a way to make a .NET application run in Windows XP without having
to download the 23MB dotnetfx?

Thanks in advance,



Francisco Garcia

There is no need to find anyone to work on this futher. Ken's answer is
correct.

We must have Framework installed to run .Net applications. If our customers
do not like downloading the 23 MB dotnetfx.exe, we can redistribute it via a
CD, together with the application we have developed.

I think I'm correct in saying that some OEMs are shipping the .NET framework
1.1 along with SP1 for XP and their computers.

You are correct. The original poster was wondering about XP and the
framework being pre-installed. My reply was just to present information
that some OEMs are starting to pre-install the framework before shipping out
their newly sold PCs.
