msi configuration

[Guest]

Hi!

I'm not sure this is the right discussion group for my problem, but this
group is the one I'm using mostly.

My application is using Crystal Decisions for handling reports etc.
I need several dll files installed on each computer running my application.
for this I've created a setup file containing the neccesary msm files.

My problem is that my nettwork administrator (handling the distribution)
suggests that I skip the part with "setup installation folder" when running
the setup.msi file

How do I do that? I'm not familiar with using msiexec commands.

I haven't done much with this, but I can give you a general idea what I
would try.

if you right click on your setup project and choose view, then user
interface you will see the screen where you set the installation location.
You can remove that screen.

Under view/file system select Application Folder from the left pane. I
think the default there will be your application folder. You can change
this on individual files by selecting the files at the right and changing
their folder property.

Hope this helps,
Nathan
