>>I am using InstallShield 6.31 Professional. Everything works fine except that foxhhelp7.exe doesn't get registered. I have to manually run "foxhhelp7.exe /regserver" to be able to start the help file from inside FoxPro. I was told by Deamon Scapin which files i need to install. He says in his reply that he install these two files and then run "foxhhelp7.exe /regserver", but i want the registration to be done by the installation program. Do you know how to check for the presence of IE4 or higher from within InstallShield ? What do you mean by "install the help update ?

This one can be installed on user's machines if they have IE 3.something. I think it is no longer required if the user has IE4 or later. Again, the installation program should do all the work automatically.

Thanks for all your help Hilmar, I will have to dig deeper into InstallShield Help to see if there is any function like yours helping me with the setup of HTML Help.
