I am new to MSI so be gentle....

I have upgraded from Setup factory to the MSI product. When running the generated MSI on a test machine (Which previously had my application running via setup factory), I get errors on some, but not all DLL's. These are generally dll's to support crystal 8.5, and other componentone ocx's.

I get messages such as "module c:\windows\system32\crpaig80.dll failed to register. HRESULT -2147024769.Contact your support personnel"

The bit which really confuses me is that the 98% of my dll/ocx work fine (third party controls, and internally generated controls). My app is developed on VB6

Thanks

Are you including the Crystal Reports runtime files directly in your project or are you using the merge module?

Directly in the App

Yeah, that might be part of the problem. It is fairly difficult to control the order of registration in MSI. Is there a merge module available for that version of Crystal Reports?
