SUMMARY
This article lists the Visual Basic run-time files installed by each version of Visual Basic, Service Packs, and other updates. This information is helpful because problems can result when you distribute mismatched versions of these files with your Visual Basic application.

NOTE: The run-time files listed in this article are the core dependencies required by all 32-bit Visual Basic applications. Your application may require additional files based on the components you have included.
