Hi All,

It has been a while! Last time I was here was a couple of years ago with Setup Factory.

Now, I am in a situation where I need to create an installer that does the following and am wondering if MSI Factory will fit the bill?

1. File installation on XPSP2, Vista, Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2008 Server.

2. Bypass Vista UAC nightmares.

3. Install SQL2008 Express edition as part of the installation.

4. Install MDAC as part of the installation.


Any comments?

Sorry, one more vital thing..

Patching.

The application is updated constantly.

Sorry... I keep thinking of things.

I need to install Windows Installer 4.5, MDAC and .NET 2.0 as part of the install as well.
