Installer package

[Garling]

I am looking for an install package creator that will package up my software will a few extra exe's that need to be installed as well. Also need to to create a System DSN connection to a SQL server with the correct DB user name and database name.

Does anyone know of anything like this? I am deploying MSDE 2000 currently with our software package and will be moving to 2005 Express within the next 6 months.

You can give Wininstall LE a try.

One of those is a free version for creating the .msi file. You'll still have to handle deployment through GP.

Google for INNO setup. It is free and a fully functional. There are also online resources to assist with the writing of the script.
