    Adding Folder to installation

    Hi

    I have an EXE created in REALbasic that has a library folder containing a single DLL. Because of the way that the latest builds of REALbasic (since 2/08) set the relative path to the DLL via that folder, they require that the folder itself is distributed along with the EXE in any installation. The DLL is inserted by REALbasic and not a component that I have chosen or can control.

    Relatively new to MSI Factory 2.0, I can't figure out if there is a way to include the entire folder with its DLL inside in an MSI Factory 2.0 installation package. If I simply include the DLL minus its folder, the REALbasic-created EXE will not run (error message): must throw off the coded pathname. I also can not find any way in REALbasic to change the pathname for this library to omit the folder name and just use the DLL.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Kind Regards,
    SGW

    Hi,

    I am replying to my own posting, since I figured out how to add the folder in MSI Factory 2.0 for this installation. Tested it, and it works fine: everything is where it should be, and the EXE runs.

    Kind Regards,

    SGW
