I have 10 plus batch files for installing a program, and several external
components and programs, currently I have a Main Controller batch file
managing the installation process. One big deficiency in that is, the
arcane DOS console scares many users off. Some one pointed me to IExpress,
that looks interesting for its GUI interface for an installer, however, the
compiled installer keeps looking for executables at %TEMP% directory instead
of the current directory, show-stopper! Secondly, the compiled executable is
really small like 77k vs. the zipped file for them all is 111MB, it looks
like something isn't right.
So, to re-cap, I'd like a GUI Window to display license info, upon
Agreement, start the reall installation process and get it done with? This
process can utilize all the batch files that I have. Doable with IExpress?
Better, simpler option?
FYI, the usual bunch of bat to exe converters won't work, they seem to be
too simple ...
Thanks.
