2012-02-01 Thread McKinnon, Chris
Hi, I'm updating my install process and I'd like to hear suggestions on improving my install process. My apps normally consist of a web site and a windows service. The apps and installers are for in-house use only. In the past, I've modified the install UI to allow to separate install
