here is our solution: We are building an old style Setup.exe (no msi) using Innosetup and ISTool. Preparation: At first step we used PDW to build an old-fashioned VB setup. The generated Setup.lst was used (imported with ISTool) as the starting point of the appropriate Innosetup buildscript. Automatation: Nant's <vb6> task is used to determine changes in referenced components and build the appropriate vb6 projects. After that PDW is used per <exec> task to 'deploy' the project and this deployment folder is used as basedir for Innosetup (also started by <exec>) to build the final setup file. hth Dominik Guder -- The answer to the great question of life, the universe and everything is 42 (Douglas Adams) ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
