I'm pretty sure you can call DLL's from scripts in InstallShield 5.  We use
ver. 5.5 and they work.  Here's how...

// declare a prototype for the function
prototype NUMBER CondMgr.CmInstallCreator(STRING, NUMBER);

UseDLL( SUPPORTDIR ^ "CondMgr.dll" ); // support dir is a variable for a
path on our cd
CmInstallCreator(szCreatorID, 0);  // szCreatorID is a string here
UnUseDLL( SUPPORTDIR ^ "CondMgr.dll" ); 

Hope this helps.

Subject: Installation Problems


Can anyone help with installing my conduit with the InstallShield that comes

with MS C++ 6.0?

I'm pretty new with using InstallShield anyway and the samples on the web 
aren't for the version that came with MS C++ 6.0.
   Is it possible with this version?
   Am I unable to call DLL's from script?
      (I believe that's the problem)
   Is there a tutorial for this version?
   Maybe a sample project workspace?

All I really need right now is enough to get my conduit registered (an 
unregistered on uninstall).

Thanks,
Scott
