    With .NET you should be able to just copy over the exe, which probably isn't too big.

    So in fact create an update

    The reason i ask is that with installshield you can create a 'Patch' that will change certain files

    I was just wondering if there was a similar procedure within this new tool as i have not been able to find anything that says 'To create a patch....'

    Does anyone have anymore suggestions

    I really dont wanna go back to using installshield!!!

    we want to use patches to send out to the public so they click on a setup.exe and this will overwrite maybe one file and they can also download the patch from the web....
