When i run the setup, why does it asks for location of next disk. Everytime i hav to type disk2. why can't it automatically take the next respective diskette? do i have set some path. have not done for other installshield projects?

Well typically disk2 is a second set of physical media such as a floppy disk or CD-ROM. If you don't need this multi-disk functionality, then simply change the media configuration for your setup, so that it doesn't span multiple disks.

I generally mail the setup to customer and if i restrict it one disk then my setup size goes to 20-25 mb. Even if i zip, it comes around 13-15 mb which obiviously can't be mailed. But one question taco bell, i did not face this with my other setups. Then why in this case?

Yes, you mentioned previously that you didn't face this with your other setups. Unfortunately, I can't really say why that is though as all my setups have either been a single CD-ROM or a single disk image. Therefore, the best advice I can give you is to simply compare your media configurations for any possible differences.

However, maybe someone else can shed some light on why this may be occurring.
