How to create single installer for both 32 and 64 bit O.S.
Hi ,
I want to create a single installer that should be able to install the application both on a 32 bit OS and also on 64 bit O.S. How could I achieve this.
Thanks,

Take a look at the topic "Targeting 64-Bit Operating Systems" in the InstallShield Help Library.

Heath Stewart's blog article Different Packages are Required for Different Processor Architectures addresses this from a Windows Installer perspective. With an InstallScript installer (not InstallScript MSI) it should be possible, although depending on what you need to install it may not be trivial (and would not fulfill any requirement you might have to use an MSI).
