First let me say I am a total noob at scripting, I have a handle on some of the concepts but mostly I'm still grey in alot of areas. Here's basically what I want to accomplish in Setup Factory:
I have already created cd with a menu that lets me click and run several differnet .bat and .exe files, and it works great. All my resources (patches, files etc.) are located on the cd. As a secondary option on the cd, as opposed to clicking each button to install all these seperatley, I'm going to add a button that that will run my setup.exe that I create in Setup Factory. When the setup runs I want it to have a page of checkboxes that can be selected to run all the programs I have associated with that check box, and I want it to RUN them from the cd, NOT copy them to a directory on the hard drive.
For example, if I have 3 checkboxes:
1. Install Acrobat.exe
2. Install myfile.bat
3. Install kb765339.exe
and I check all 3 boxes, I want to RUN all 3 of these files from the cd. I have played around with the File.Run action but to be honest I'm not sure the syntax I need to use to make them run from the cd and work with checkboxes. Anyone have a small sample code they can post for me? Thanks!
