Sorry to be such a pain, but, I discarded the idea of running the scripts in "silent mode".

When I went back to allowing the user to make entries, I recognized that LauchAppandWait was finishing and returning to my VFP app as soon as the "InstallShield Wizard" small dialog box reached 100%. The actual script screens became a running app, just like my VFP app. If I choose to install more than 1 app, my loop continued and I ended up with multiple scripts running at the same time. Needless to way, that's not what our support department wants, so I'm forced to abandon this project and go to either InstallShield for Windows Installer 1.5 or Wise for Windows Installer 2.0

I don't understand what Express 2.02 is doing, I can't think of any other alternatives. Thanks again for your help and I'll look for your article.
