hi,
if using vb6 it's buggy get it updated with sp4 and if done and still the problem exists .
Advise is to use installshield which is much more better and u can do many things
-
Hi,
I'm already using sp4, and problem still exists... The problem with installshield is that right now I don't want to buy a an additional license to distribute my program for something that the installation package should do by itself!
Could you please advise on this:
If I include the same files that are now in the .cab created by VB, will that REGISTER the files such as mscomctl.ocx or commdlg32.dll?
Thank you in advance,
W.

hi ,
i'am not sure whether it will work i feel that the customer might be having these two files so while running the setup the files may be active deply the package again and set the installtion path for the dll/ocx file to $(Appath) instead of $(WinSysPath) which will copy files to application folder and register
i feel this should solve ur problem
-
It didn't work, also as you can see the files were already updated so nothing has been changed within them... and all the other files already ARE just in AppPath.
It works on my machine! And not on 2 other PC's that I've tried. Both show me a Type mismatch and they stop installing when creating the directory (see log file).
HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLPPP!!!!!! I have to release this asap, program and everything perfectly running except for this automatic package...
Or, can you tell me another way??
thanks,
W.
