Setup Prerequisites
I upgraded from InstallShield 2009 to InstallShield 2010 last week. I downloaded the 2010 InstallScript files (InstallShield 2010 Prerequisites, InstallShield 2010 Prerequisites for .NET, InstallShield 2010 InstallScript Legacy Objects,InstallShield 2010 InstallScript Objects, etc...)
i upgraded a 2009 MSI/InstallScript project to 2010. I had several prerequisites (MDAC 2.8, Windows Installer 4.5). I would get errors building the installs concerning these files even after I ran the installers for the above files. I opened the .prq files and found the location of the files necessary. They listed the ISProductFolder in the path of the file. I found the correct folders and files under Program Files\InstallShield\2009\SetupPrerequisites. I copied them into Program Files\InstallShield\2010\SetupPrerequisites and the 2010 project finally built successfully.
Does the 2010 installs for the files downloaded from http://www.acresso.com/downloads/downloads_5842.htm copy files to the 2009 tree? Just asking as someone else may have this problem.

The setups allow you to choose the install location during the install. They run a system search to try to find an existing IS install to pre-populate the install location, but it is possible that it grabbed the wrong folder.
