Converting IS Project to MSI

Hello,

at the moment I'm testing IS2008. After converting my old projects (6.30) I would like to generate a MSI installation. Is there a way to do this?

There isn't any method to 'convert' an InstallScript installation to a Basic MSI installation.

It's a pity, but thank you for your answer

Is your project an InstallScript project? The Premier edition of InstallShield includes Repackager. You can use Repackager to convert an InstallScript project to a Basic MSI project.

Here's a link to the Repackager User Guide (a PDF):

I'm not aware of an evaluation version of Repackager. I recommend contacting Macrovision Sales (http://www.macrovision.com/company/contact_us.htm) about this.
