>My database will be installed on someone's network drive, with just the runtime files on local drives. I am trying to figure out the cleanest way for the users to put runtimes on other workstations. I made an install that installed only one readme.txt in a folder called \dummy. It installed some other files, including a setup manager that I suppose is used for un-installing, among other things. I want them to be able to un-install the runtimes in the future. I also want them to be able to delete the unnecessary text file and avoid cluttering their hard (or network) drives as much as possible. Should I make the default folder their windows folder? Then they won't have an extraneous folder, at least. Is there a better way?
InstallShield gives you this capability.
