Hi-
I created my install program using the VB package and deployment wizard but I continue to get an 'invalid line' error on this one line every time I try to install it.

All of the other dll's and ocx's install just fine when I take out this line in the setup.lst file. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I need to find a way to have dao350.dll self-install on the user's machines.
TIA

Uh oh...
This seems to be a problem with the P&D wizard. The P&D Wizard started doing this with me a couple of weeks ago and now it just won't run, even if you re-install the thing.
It's just one of those things - at least now I know it's not me! The only thing you can do is acquire a copy of InstallShield or WiseInstaller and use them.
Sorry I couldn't be more help!

Have a look at the InnoSetup package and the ISTool proggie that goes with it. They are free and they are brilliant. They may not have all the wizbang features of InstallShield, but both tools are free (the InnoSteup compiler also comes with the Delphi source). Grab the InnoSetup extensions as well.
You can get the comiler at http://www.innosetup.com and the other stuff you can get to by looking in the 3rd party links page.
It compiles about 10 times the speed of the P&D, and then installs a heap quicker (with lots more options like component installs etc.)
Highly recommended (5 stars)
