Description

How can I create one of those nifty self-installing programs I have used on Windows 95/NT?

Problem Resolution

Similar to IRIX installation files, InstallShield is used to wrap programs into an easy-to-distribute package for Windows 95/NT.

InstallShield is the defacto standard among PC installation programs. A base version is included free of charge with Visual C++ 5.0. A more advanced version may be purchased over the WEB at:
