Stefan, do you happen to know if it is possible to get Installshield books in PDF form or on CD-ROM?

[Stefan Krueger]

No I don't think that's possible (except for the German version of Baker's "Getting Started with Developer" book which is only available as pdf).

Maybe the book content is included as PDF on the CD that comes with the book, but I don't know, as I don't have one yet. I should be able to tell you tomorrow or on Monday.
