Hi William et all Why do you need Wise or similar? Isn't the MS installer fine? Then all you need is the SageKey script for this. /gustav >>> dejpolsys at hotmail.com 04-02-2005 16:23:23 >>> ..in your situation with hundreds of small/moderate business users where you have no control over the environment I'd definitely go with Wise/Sage ..I use the VSTO because I refuse to work any longer in environments where I don't control it (semi-retirement lets you get away with things like that).
