I think the Visual Studio Installer is much better than the VFP one. It uses the 'windows installer' technology and does a much 'cleaner' install (and uninstall later if needed). Looks better & more professional too. It's my understanding that this will be the new standard too. You may want to checkout the Wise installer too. I did a bunch of research on installers at one time and found that the Wise one had the most to offer, but at like 600 bucks I'm sticking to the 'el-cheapo-freebee' VS one for now.

>Can anyone offer some suggestions and/or reasons for using an installer other than the one that comes with VFP6? I know it's simple and limited, but I guess what I'm curious about is, what more would a product like InstallShield offer that you would consider really important?
