Thanks Brian. I just read a few pieces of info on this. They mention that no two components may have the same keypath. I'm still pretty confused on when we set this to yes. For instances, in my install I have a folder named "binaries" which about a half a dozen critial/vital DLLs, an OCX, and an ActiveX EXE. Should all of these have a keypath set to yes? I have other directories that contain with Windows Services (ActiveX.exe and support DLLs). Will the EXE have a keypath of "Yes"? The way I'm picturing this is that if the files are not vital then set the keypath to "NO", or leave it blank. Would you concur?
