Don't know if i'm in the right newsgroup
Hi,
You may have already solved this, but, I suggest you get
something like installshield express. For about $400
you'll save a lot of time (more than $400 worth). I find
the package and deployment wizard that ships with
Microsoft products totally falls short of its inteneded
purpose. You'll save a lot of headaches by using something
else. I know that Installshield Express was one of the
best investments we've made.
Cheers
Andrew
