Build a custom prerequisite to install the other version, or both versions.

thx
Do you know if it is possible to have a file as argument to the application? A program i want as prerequisite needs a file used when running in silent mode.

Thanks again Steve- I also need to install .Net 1.1 and 2.0.
I'm also wanting to install a hotfix for .Net 1.1 SP1 (the file is M928366.msp) if it's not already installed. The Setup Prerequisite Editor doesn't allow me to run .msp files. Is there a way I can call msiexec and then use m928e66.msp as a command line parameter?
Thanks! AL
ps- using Installshield 12

I haven't reid this, but if you include both files in the prerequisite and on the command line specify only the file name, maybe this could work.

Okay, I'll look into what it takes to do a self expanding exe.
Funnily enough, my application is compiled against .Net 1.1, but my app also needs SQL Server 2005- and that requires .Net 2.0. My app is exhibiting problems unless it has .Net 1.1 SP1 AND that hotfix- so I'm having Installshield do .Net 2.0 automatically and then I've created 3 pre-reqs for .Net 1.1, .Net 1.1 SP1 and .Net 1.1 SP1 Hotfix. Ugh. Everything is working except for the hotfix.
I tried this (it didn't work- now I'll try your advice): renamed the .msp file to .msi, created the .prq file, renamed the .msi back to .msp and edited the .prq in a text editor to .msp. Didn't work- creating the kit didn't complain, neither did the install on a clean machine- but the hotfix didn't get installed.
If only Installshield wasn't so short sighted and allowed installation of more than one version of .Net... Thanks again, I'll report back what I get working! AL

Yup- you're right- the .msp file originally came as NDP1.1sp1-KB928366-X86.exe and if I call that with a /Q, it runs just fine. Thanks again! AL
