Jonathan,
That sounds like exactly what's needed for installation. You're right about
the VBRUN100.DLL problem, however. Is there a way to determine the path to
the Windows 3.0 directory? If so, you could simply check for the file's
existance, then copy the library to that directory if it wasn't already
there.
You might end up putting a second copy on the system, but in most cases, I
think users are putting the library in their Windows directory anyhow.
If I'm not mistaken, VBRUN100.DLL will work if it's anywhere in the path,
right? You could even check for the file in every pathed directory before
copying it.
In other areas, I'd be more than glad to pay a reasonable fee for such a
program, but it'd have to be on a non-royalty basis for distribution.
I'd also like, if it were my option, to be able to put my own logo and
other information on the screen as the install program ran, as a BMP file
or whatever.
My two cents worth,
George
