I have a application created with Access 97. It has its own setup, so I dont believe it would not be resonable to deconstruct it. What I need to do is create a new setup for this old application utilizing VB.NET. What I need to do is have VB start the old access setup program, and then report back to VB.NET that it is done. Is there a way I can see if this old application has finished its original setup?
