Doug,
ISE Limited that comes with VFP 7 will do pretty much everything you want and ISEexpress is pretty much the standard. ISE Limited is not quite as good with upgrades as ISExpress full version(you need to use a few workarounds). IMO, I would stay away from InstallShield Pro - way overkill for VFP installs..
>We have a small system that is provided to users as they join the company [as sales reps]. They download the system from the web and install locally. Periodically we are correcting bugs and enhancing the system. Therefore, we need the new users to be able to install a complete system [VFP runtime, dbfs, exe, etc.] and allow current users to just update the exe file. I am still using VFP 6 and am looking for an install system that can either ask the user what they want [new system, update existing system] or determine what they need AND then install the appropriate set of files.

I didn't see where Inno had this capability and just wanted to know if InstallShield or Wise would be best for working with VFP 6 and eventually VFP 7. And also, what version Professional or Standard of these packages.
