Installing another installer from a installer package.. -
Hi,
I am using Visual Installer to make installation packages for my VB applications.
One of my applications uses a serial to USB converter, this converter comes with a CD that contains the installer for the drivers.
Now I would like combine the driver installer with my VB application installer, so that I do not have to give the driver CD separately to the user.
How do I do this ?? Is it possible to run the Setup.exe application from visual installer ??
thanks
