Hi,
I am looking on how to install Jet Service Pack as part of my application.
Option 1: Prerequisite
It is easy to do this as a prerequisite by checking the version of e. g. msjet40.dll
Problem: There are different Installation EXEs for Win9x/NT, WinMe, W2K, XP, W2K3, ... and Advanced Installer does not allow to differentiate between these in theprerequisite condtion.
Option 2: Custom Action
With Custom Actions I can set conditions to start the "right" EXE for each OS.
Problem: AFAIK there is no way to skip the action when Jet SP8 is already installed (so I would end up trying to install the SP even if a newer version exists).
I don't want to include all the files in my files and folders (I even expect problems for W2K3 and XP)!
So what do you suggest?
