hi,

> - what about embedded version?

as I did it, I downloaded the redistributable and executed it in the Inno setup of my application (at the end) using a
bit of Inno "magic" :-), that's to say that I execute the redistributable only if the environment is Windows XP,
otherwise it's enough to put msvcp80.dll and msvcrt80.dll in the same folder of the application. That's how I learned it.

HTH
