 VB Setup/Install KIT???

        YO!

                Im current developing a CD and im having some problems:

        1. VB dlls
        2. Fonts

                Im after some kind of Setup/Install kit to make some sort of script to
install, copy the necessary files to the clients HD, the Dlls and the
fonts.

                If exist please let me know OK! Thx.

---

                My other question is also concern about my product, ive made a routine
to see where the CDRom is but i cant use it on the Shell command:

                x=shell("\programs\interpc\inet.exe \programs\html\inicial.htm",1)

                                ^                                       ^
                                ` call the internet explorer            ` and open this
                                  located in the CD.                      html page...

        The problem is i cant put the variable for the CD letter in the Shell
command :(

                Help will be apreaciated. Thx.

The VB setup wizard should build the portion to install the dlls and
you can modify the setupkit code to install fonts.  You'll need a
knowledgebase article on how to install the fonts.

This shouldn't be a problem.  You'll need to determine the CD drive
letter first.  If your running the program from CD then parse drive
from App.Path else an API call or two is need to get a drive list and
determine which are CDs.

Then code something like:
sDrive = "D:"
sHTML = "\programs\interpc\inet.exe \programs\html\inicial.htm"

x=shell(sDrive & sHTML,1)

or use another var and

sTarget = sDrive & sHTML

x=shell(sTarget,1)

Good luck,

dj

Check out Wise Installation builder from Great Lakes Business Systems
at http://www.glbs.com. They have a free demo you can try for 30 days.
I've been testing it now for about a month and am very impressed.
