Hi

I have created an Event Log Source Installer .dll to enable me to
create an event log source that a WebService can write to as per the
instructions in:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...classtopic.asp

How do i automate the calling of this from a setup project?

At the moment i have to run my setup.msi, then run the installutil
from the command line.

any help greatly appreciated.

thanks


Ian

Hi Ian,
You just add the installer dll as a custom action to your install project.
There is a walkthrough in the documentation here:
