Hello friends,

I'm using Installshield for 'Microsoft VC++ 6 'for the first time. I need your help on this.

I have an Admin.Exe, which need to be started after the Installshield Setup is succesfully run. But during Setup process, i want the setup to ask the user about his Company Name (which is String) . This information has to stored into Registry. And when the setup is successfully run, that Admin.Exe will pick up the Comapny Name value from the reg entry and will have the caption of the Company name specified in the reg entry.

Possibly, send me ALL the necessary steps for this.

Kindly, help me asap.its URGENT

Thanks in advance
sauren

VC6 includes a limited version of InstallShield Professional 5 so I'm moving your question to the IS5 forum.

In the VC6 edition some functionality has been removed from the full product. For instance, you cannot launch an executable.
for registry access use the RegDB* familiy of fucntions.
