Ed,
Cindy Winegarden posted a link to some new Fox-Toys for the installer on the Wiki
http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?wiki~VisualStudioInstaller~VFPI'm downloading them now and I guess I'll also have to download the installer itself (I was going to wait for the autosend from the infamous fulfilment voucher)
Cheers,
Andrew

>From my POV, it isn't much of an improvement as provided now; from a statement by Robert Green, it can't even directly support a post-setup executable since it's a transactional installation tool, and it isn't prepared to roll back whatever damage the post-setup executable does...so it doesn't do what I need an installer to do.
If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
