    Hi!

    I have some experiences also with Wise Installer and for the easiest installations you can use Microsoft VSI.
    I prefere to create the installations directly editing the tables using for example the Orca editor or editing the tables in InstallShield.

    Regards,

    If the hardware is so great.. why use software to correct it..?? It will only slow it down..
    Al is de hardware nog zo snel de software achterhaalt het wel

    NSIS by nullsoft is my favourite. it's pretty powerfull and creates compact install packages without all the bloat of installshield.

    My Vote: Wise Installer Enterprise Edition. Have not had any problems with this in over a year (latest version). About 50 different install kits.

    Also has powerful analysis tools to determine dependencies.

    One word of warning, it does not differentiate between OS Specific system files and others. Therefore if you build a kit with EVERY dependency, it may include items such as Kernel32 and User32. Copy these onto a different machine and you just propably totally hose the machine!!

    Note, the above problem can hapen with ANY install program. Wise just gives you a tool that (if used improperly) makes it EASY

    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.
