I have experience using the Wise Installation System and the Wise for Windows Installer (parts of Wise Package Studio), and they will register OCX or TLB items, but I don't think InstallShield Express will do it. You may have to write your own installer or, have a module (separate .exe) which runs when your app runs, which will properly register your components for you. I tend to shy away from using any OCX/Active X controls, especially when deploying to unknown computer systems. I like to stay with straight VCL components. You will end up doing a ton of work trying to troubleshoot problems that are not caused by your app, but are caused by settings in your target systems.XFX nForce 680i LT SLI Socket 775 | Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 OC:1600 FSB @ 3.2 MHz | 2 x OCZ SLI 1024MB PC6400 DDR2 800MHz| XION 600w PSU | CM Stacker 200 ATX/BTX Case | EVGA GeForce 8800 GTS 512 | WD SATA 74 GB Raptor (boot,system), WD SATA 500 GB (storage) | Windows XP Pro, SP2 | Patient and supportive significant other

They require the associated DLL or OCX. I have tried to work out these. I am unable to get any further information on this. If I had a full version of Installshield Express probably the task will be simplified for me by the dependency functionality of the program. Are there any freeware versions of a good dependency checker tool for Delphi? I have tried to use Process monitor tool. It did help to some extent. However even if I plough through all the hundreds of DLL's I think it will be hard to locate.Thanx-in-AdvanceAnu Rang, TotallyFreeEnergyhttp://totallyfreeenergy.freehoxt.com _________________________________________________________________ With Windows Live for mobile, your contacts travel with you. http://www.windowslive.com/mobile/overview.html?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_Refresh_mobile_052008
