How do I set the TCP/IP property to get an IP Address from a DHCP server with InstallShield script? If if a machine has a static IP, I need to change it to get an IP from a DHCP server.
Thanks

WHy do you want to do that? I personally use a static IP address for a very specific reason. If an installer came along and changed that, I would be extremely upset. Maybe you should look at what you're trying to do and see if there is another way of accomplishing it.

you could try setting the following registry for the specific network card:
Key=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\XXXX\Parameters\Tcpip
Name=EnableDHCP Value=1
the difficulty comes in when you have to determine a variety of nic cards on different machines...
