    Try Mindvision's Installer Vise. Its a good and easy to use installation program, and it is free for freeware/shareware developers: http://www.mindvision.com

    I like the VB one

    I agree I save a backup of the VB installer then modify the code directly to make my own

    Wise is way to expensive, you can make your own setup program and use the P&D Wizard as a template.

    Wise can be expensive. My work bought the FULL version for $17,000. But my version was only $300 and it does lots.

    But he did say free, so i doubt he'll buy Wise. Who has any money these days anyway? I spent all mine on xmas presents.
