Hi,
If I'm distributing common system files (oleaut32.dll, various MS ocx's 
like richtx32.ocx, msflexgrd.ocx etc.), do I need to make provisions for 
installing different files on NT and 95? Or can I just build on NT - with the 
NT files, and install this common program on both NT and 95?

Any help appreciated - I'm new to installations!
BTW I'm using InstallShield 5.5 Professional...

Hi Jon,

I have a similar situation.
I have tried InstallShield 5.5 Pro and failed badly - be warned.

The setup runs fine on my 95/98 and NT systems but failed out in the world
with very vage messages from IS.

I have decided to go back to VB5 SP3 and use the Application setup wizard.
All the problems disapeard and my setup is fine now.

I built the setup on a Win95 system and the software runs on 95, 98 and NT

HTH
Ole
