[venky]

Overview
Use the Visual J# 2.0 dependency module with MSI Factory 2.0 to detect and install Visual J# 2.0 2nd Ed. redistributable package.

Background Information
The Microsoft Visual 2nd edition Redistributable Package version 2.0 includes everything you need to run your Visual 2nd edition applications on a computer that already has the Microsoft .NET Framework v2.0 installed. The Visual 2nd edition Redistributable Package is not intended to run applications written with other Java-language development tools. Applications and services built with Visual 2nd edition will run only on the .NET Framework and will not run on any Java Virtual Machine. Visual 2nd edition has been independently developed by Microsoft and is not endorsed or approved by Sun Microsystems, Inc. The Visual J# 2.0 2nd Ed. redistributable installation package is available as a stand-alone executable file, vjredistx86.exe (x86 systems) and vjredistx64 (x64 systems). When this dependency module is included in your setup, it installs Visual J# 2.0 2nd Ed. redistributable package if needed.

Installation Instructions
To make Visual J# 2.0 dependency module available in your MSI Factory 2.0 projects, follow the steps below:
1. Close MSI Factory 2.0, if it is running.
