Can the new Installshield 3.51 build CABs for AxtiveX exes?

It seems to imply that it can but I need to know before I buy!

Do you mean developer (v7)? Installshield will install the ActiveX exe no problem.

Just tried it...

I was thinking of Express 3.53

I'm not sure about Express...
I used that for a while, but gave up on it in lieu of Developer.

You can upgrade from Express, but it's still expensive

It certainly is!


Installshield told me this

The Developer 7 product has the Feature you are seeking. With the release
Wizard you may select the:
Install from the Web- Setup.exe, MSI package, and CAB files Option.

This option does not stream in all the application data but generates all
the cab files along with the MSI Package and setup.exe. 

I suggest that you download our free evaluation of the Developer 7 product
and see if it meets all of your installation needs. The free evaluation copy
can be acquired from the attached link.
