Hi
My SETUP installer needs a UNINST.ISU creator.

I'm not sure what that is technically called, but I need my homemade VDS5 SETUP wizard to create all the UNINST.ISU related files and put it in the ADD/REMOVE dialog window like professional installers do.

Hope this makes some since, if this takes pascal or a voodoo witch man with stinky underarms, please let me know and I will quit pestering the idea Wink

have a happy VDS6 coding day someday..

All you actually need for your program to show in the Add/Remove app is to create a key under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Name the key whatever your program is called, then add the following string values under that key:
DisplayName which you set to whatever you want Add/Remove to show.
UninstallString which you set to the path of your uninstall program.

For an example open regedit and browse to the path above, then to the Visual DialogScript key.

Cool cooly

Lotta keys in there Laughing

Thanks, I was lead to believe it was pascal from former forum reading, so glad its simple registry creating and editing. Awesome...

Now maybe I can finally check out my keycode generator along with my new setup wizard and get the full view Very Happy

I'll email you in a few days when I get it all done, I have a program concerning your videodisplayDLL rights question, again, thanks a bunch.
