Do I need Merge Modules in my installer?

[Mark Durrenberger]

I've written and add-in for MS Project. It only works with Project and no
other office product (though it does use CommandBars)
Microsoft Installer shows several dependencies to MSM files however aren't
all (or most) of the office DLLs installed when Project is installed? I'd
like to remove them from the installer and avoid the "older version" problem
with my users (I've already heard from one :-( )

Here are my dependencies:
comcat.msm
comctl32
comdlg32
mscomct2
mscomctl
msdatagrd
msflxgrd
mshflxgd
msstdfmt
msvbvm60
oleaut32

Which of these are standard Office/MSProject libararies or how can I find
this out on my own so I know which MSM files to include and which ones to
delete?

Thanks
Mark

hi, you can use the dll help database to find out which product installs
which file
