Michelle,

Since this has gotten completely off-track I thought I would try to answer your original question. I've found that creating a setup with the VFP setup wizard is the easiest way to find out what you need to install. Look in the setup.inf it creates. You can double-click a file in Setup Specialist to tell it where to install it (app dir, win dir, win sys dir, etc). This is also where you can tell it to register an OCX or DLL.

I think Setup Specialist is a good deal. It probably can't do everything Installshield can do, but if you just need some basic setup cabability it's much better than the VFP setup wizard.

It sounds like part of the reason your employer is reluctant to spend money to save your time is that he's underpaying you. Maybe it's time to look for a new job?

>Has anybody used this with VFP? I'm wondering how I get it to setup the stuff VFP needs. I also need to install 2 active-x controls.
