thanks to everyone for the the help on my previous questions. I have one final question and I should be out of this misery. I'm using inno setup (istool) for the first time. do i need to include all the files that P&D Wizard says. like:
msflexgd.ocx, mscomctl.ocx, comdlg.ocx ...
do I just set the same destination directories?

also there are some files that P&D wizard includes like:
vb6 runtime & ole automation, stunst.exe that do not have a destination directory listed -- where do these go??

thanks and looking forward to leaving this computer off for days!!
