Terry,
Thank you for your input and suggestions.

>Yes you can trust IS to uninstall - but once when I was testing install and uninstall, one of the intalled builds did not show up on the "Add Remove Programs" list. Make sure the remove option is always true.
>
>If you are using the ISE that comes with VFP - it may also be a good idea to create a new "project" for each build. ISE does not seem to like "rebuilds" - of course it could have been me!:-)
>
>Once you get it right - ISE will do just fine. Remember to assign the "Working Directory" as the one where your exe is. I also set the [DATABASE] and [PROGRAM ] handles to the same folder.

>>I need to test many different SETUPs, this is the first time I am working on InstallShield Express so I know I will have many tests.
>>
>>I have a PC that has nothing but XP Pro installed. I would like to be sure that after each SETUP installation I can uninstall it and the next one will be on a "clean" machine.
>>
>>My question is:
>>1. Can I trust InstallShield Uninstall to clean up everything?
>>2. Is XP Pro freature System Restore better?
>>3. Would I be better off buying a commercial product (I think there is one but I can't remember the name right at the moment).
>>
>>Please let me know what you think. Thank you.
