Install package TWO only if package ONE is already installed
I have two setup packages/EXEs. ONE: Installs a number of Excel workbooks in a custom folder which is chosen by the user. It then sets the folder and filename of one of the XL workbooks in HKLM\Software\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]\Folder & HKLM\Software\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]\Filename res...

Re: Confused about patching.
I think I'm getting there with the Patch method- I just need to keep testing and get my head around it. How can I extract the MSI from the EXE to a specific subfolder using the command line? The reason I ask this is that my installation packages are all EXEs with the product version number in the fi...

Re: Confused about patching.
OK. After extracting the MSI (and all the other files which came with it) from my setup.exe V2.0.12 14,661 KB and V2.0.13, 14,664 KB, I ended up with two MSI files. The V2.0.13 MSI was set as the Upgraded image and V2.0.12 was set as the Target image. The resulting Patch.msp file was 40 KB. So what ...

Re: Confused about patching.
Thanks Mihai, But I do not understand what I need to do. Here's what I have: I have an Enterprise project which contains a number of XL files. I have the following options set in Media: Media Media\Package- Folder: C:\Users\Julian\Documents\MyCompany\Sure Project\FileSystem- XL2007\Notification Setu...

Confused about patching.
I have built an EXE to install a series of MS XL files. I now have a situation where one or two of the 10 XL files will need to be updated, this is because the other 8 XL files will contain running data which needs to be preserved. So, what method do I use so that my user can update the one or two X...

Can error/warning messages be altered to custom text?
For example, when the target system does not contain Dot.Net framework 4, we wish to show a custom text string, or better still, show an RTF file with instructions on where to get it and how to install it. Are these two possible?

Re: Install DLL depending on OS architecture x86/x64
Normally I select Self Register native Library and thus did so again in this case. I'm assuming that since I have conditions set in the Organisation section for x86 & x64, one of the DLLs will be installed to the target file system. Then, since both files are set to self-register, one of them wi...

Re: Install DLL depending on OS architecture x86/x64
I added both DLLs to Files and Folders, then in Organisation\Product\Main Feature:
* Right-click Red86.dll, set Condition to "NOT VersionNT64".
* Right-click Red64.dll, set Condition to "VersionNT64".
Should I set the properties of both DLLs to Auto-Register-File?
* Right-click Red86.dll, set Condition to "NOT VersionNT64".
* Right-click Red64.dll, set Condition to "VersionNT64".

Install DLL depending on OS architecture x86/x64
I have a setup where I need to install a 3rd party DLL. There are two DLLs:
* Red86.dll
* Red64.dll
I need to register Red86.dll if the target OS is x86. I need to register Red64.dll if the target OS is x64.
How do I achieve this in AI? Thanks.

Re: Can AI detect which, if any, Office interops are installed?
I tried the following Launch Condition: ( OUTLOOK_2007_REGKEY = OUTLOOK2007_Found ) AND ( OUTLOOK_2007_INTEROP_REGKEY ~>< OUTLOOK_Interops_Found ) Where: * OUTLOOK_2007_REGKEY, Custom Search: Root: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT Key: TypeLib\{00062FFF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\9.3 Name: [~] * OUTLOOK2007_Foun...

Re: Can AI detect which, if any, Office interops are installed?
There is no way to specify the following criteria: If Office2007 installed but not Office 2007 Interops installed then ShowUserMsg(" You must install the Office 2007 Interops first") OR If Office2010 installed but not Office 2010 Interops installed then ShowUserMsg(" You must install ...

Re: Can AI detect which, if any, Office interops are installed?
Is there no way for AI to detect if ANY Office interops are installed and if not to install them from an MS redistributable? AI can do it for individual interops already so how does it do this?

Re: Can AI detect which, if any, Office interops are installed?
I do not think AI can do this, and this is a basic function: Check if at least one MS Office Interop is installed for either Office 2003, 2007 or 2010. Here's why: A VB.Net app which interfaces with MS Outlook 2007 uses the Office 2007 Interop to reference the Outlook object model. When this app is ...

I'm not sure I understand how to set this up. This is what I require: My requirements are: * Check if Office 2007 Interops are installed (Outlook & Excel in particular) * Check if Office 2010 Interops are installed (Outlook & Excel in particular) If both are not installed then I would like m...

Can AI detect which, if any, Office interops are installed?
Most of today's VB.Net apps which interface with the Office components (Outlook, Excel, etc) need to have the Office interops installed in the target computer's Global Assembly Cache (GAC) before they will work. Can AI be setup to check which, if any, Office interops are installed in the target comp...
