Hi - I'm a complete newbie to Installshield. I've put all my files in and click on Build and get the following in the log file. What does it mean and does it mean I cannot distribute my application until I get rid of these errors?

Thanks
Marian

InstallShield is trying to gather the registration information for your files when it tries to build the install.  To do this, it attempts to register the keyfile of your component, then checks what is written.

What these errors say is that you haven't set your executables, dlls or ocxs to be keyfiles.  In the setup design, you need to select the file that it should extract registration from, then set it to be a keyfile.  Do this in each component that you have an error for.
