Kevin,
If you did a side by side comparison between InstallShield and Wise, given that you are apparently firmly in the Wise camp <g>, can you give me your best, unbiased opinion on which is a better product and why?
Thanks!

Also the flexibililty of a script based installer seems to make sense. I have never used the VSI and I really don't know the capabilities of the VFP7 included InstallShield, but I am not overly surprised that developers need more than what MS includes.

I just don't know if the commercial version of InstallShield Express has all the power I have to come to expect in something like Wise (or Installashield's bigger brother?).
