What I did is set INSTALLDIR to be [CommonFileFolder]Vfp which I created in the Set INSTALLDIR window (that shows the list of folders). Then it was easy. I copied the .OCX file to this folder in the Files section of the InstallSheild tree and it seems to have done the job.>

I remember looking up in the properties of the OCX (from within InstallSheild) and it was saying something to the effect that the file will be registered. I didn't have to specify anything. Maybe ISE figures it by the extention of the file?
I was not placing the .EXE and .OCX in the same folder. Actually the SETUP I was creating didn't have .EXE at all. This was a SETUP to install run-time DLLs only. So user didn't even have a dialog to enter or select destination directory.
