First off - THANK YOU very much to everyone who helped and in particular
Erv Walter.
I think I have it working. A couple of questions:
1. If all the prerequisites exist and I use ApplicationUrl what
happens is a window pops up for a split second, goes away, and then
nothing while it is downloading. Then our program pops up. Is there some
way to get a message while this is happening, preferably with a status
bar? Otherwise people are going to think it just went away - especially
if their download speed is slow.
1. Note - this is only an issue if all prerequisites are
already installed. If a prerequisite needs to be installed then this
download will show with a status bar.
2. If that cannot be done, what's the best way to structure
this? It seems to me it is have a MSI that holds setup.exe and our MSI,
it installs both, runs setup.exe and it calls the other MSI locally at
the end. But this means we then have 2 MSIs and that's ugly. Any other
approaches?
2. Any idea what to put in for the .NET 2.0 and J# 2.0 language
packs?
3. Any idea what to put in to get the Office hotfixes (listed at
http://www.windwardreports.com/office_hotfix.htm) to install? Two of
them for Word 200/2002/2003 and one for Word 2003 only.
4. Any idea how to make IIS a prerequisite (sort-of essential for
an ASP.NET app).
Thanks - dave
