VB Install Maker

[VBD]

I created a small program. Tell me what you think. It allows you to create 1 mb installs opposed to the 4 megs of a P&D Wizard install. It works like this: you create an installation program in whatever Visual Basic. Than you rename it to setup.exe and put it in the same folder as the install

Than, Install Strap registers all the VB6 controls/runtime needed for your install to run. Finally, it runs your install. Now, you can create installation programs in VB6! Tell me what you think. PS:
To have other VBRuntime you need(besides that of a basic project), registered before your install runs, edit Setup.LST. Paste the runtime file into The same directory as Install Strap. Than put the filename at the end of Setup.LST. The first line of the Setup.LST is the name of the install EXE. The second line is the Registeration Utility(Regsvr32.exe). Give it a try. Tell me what you think!

Sorry about the Double ZIps(Zip and then RAR). But rar compresses better and Zip uploads at VBWorldDownload Here

What's the purpose? The only trouble with VB's Package and Deployment Wizard is you have to manually edit the Setup.lst for most customizations.
