Mark,

I tried that. Then when I go to run the Setup to install the app on someone's computer, I get the message that IE4 or later is required and recommends termination of setup. Granted I have never ignored that message and have not gone on with the setup to see what happens. However, this seems to me to be a failure of installing the HTML Help Engine. My assumption was thinking that by checking the HTML Help Engine box, the VFP setup wizard would include the HTML Help files, including foxhhelp.exe and foxhelpps.dll in the CAB file. At least this is what the MS KB article lead me to believe.

In my installs I first check for minimum IE4 to be on the machine. If not, I call IE5-setup that I always have on the CD as well. then I exit Installation and restart it.

For the HelpSystem itself I install foxhelpps.dll and foxhelp.exe

I use wise for Setups but I guess that can be done with InstallShield as well.
