Visual C++ 2005 redistributable

[pocruadhlaoich]

Hi,
as far as I am aware there are three redistributable packages that would need to be installed on a customer's machine so that it would be able to run software that was developed on an XP OS using Visual Studio 2005 SP1. These are:

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Can someone please tell me if I need to add all three of these to my installer and sequence them silently for installation, or if I am missing any, or if the latest package includes all previous work, or if there is yet another package again that is the amalgamation of those above?
Thanks,
Patrick

You only need one. And the one you need depends on what updates your Visual Studio app is using.

#1 -> you have fresh install of VS2005. You have never updated it before, and don't care to update it.
#2 -> you updated VS2005 with SP1.
#3 -> you updated VS2005 with the security update.

#3 option is the latest of course. You need to update Visual Studio before you compile your program.

oh, and just open up your About box to see what updates you already have.

Excellent Syslock, that is just what I wanted to know, thank you!
