CChong2 (Flexera) asked a question.

dev studio distribution
i am trying to build a basic MSI project for an application. when i am done customizing and authoring the project using Dev Studio's Project Assistant - i go to the last step - "Build Installation" it gives me only three options - of creating a "single executable image" and distributing it, of distributing it over the internet via a *.htm file, or building a CD-ROM image.

 

the build process works like a charm and the distribution also works fine - however my concern is the fact that it distributes an "exe" image - what should i do to create and distribute an msi package?

 

if i do not use Dev Studio and build it using Repackager i get the msi file but then i cannot customize the file according to my preferences as i could do in Dev Studio.

 

any suggestions?

    For more build options, you might look into using the Release Wizard in DevStudio, which is available under the Build menu.
