I am currently creating a new setup program with InstallShield Developer 7.04 to install the latest version of my company's program, Qwik+FILE.  All previous versions of Qwik+FILE were installed using InstallShield Professional 6.3.  I was wondering if there was a good way to release an upgrade for the current users using InstallShield Developer.  Any suggestions or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

The cleanest solution would be to invoke the uninstall of the old version. There is no direct way to update since they are using different technologies. Installing on top might cause trouble - at least remove the old uninstall entry!
