Hello, we create a single setup executable with InstallShield Professional 2008, lets say it is called MySetup.exe. During the installation the user is asked for some input like DatabaseName and ServerIP.
Some of our customers would like to start the setup without filling those input everytime. They would like to run the installation someway automatic. Is there a way to do that?
I don't know what kind of installer you are building but if you can build and msi instead, you can do the following: msiexec /i C:\Example.msi USERNAME=Default COMPANYNAME="ABC Corp"

And if the package is wrapped into an .exe bootstrapper, the syntax is MySetup.exe /v"USERNAME=Default COMPANYNAME=\"ABC Corp\""

Thank you very much. Do I understand it right, that I can handover any Property that is defined in my InstallShield project with the following command line syntax?
If a path contains spaces, you need to use the internal quotes with the backslash. The note near the top of the following help topic shows an example: Setup.exe and Update.exe Command-Line Parameters
Searching the Support Web site (http://kb.acresso.com) (or even the local help that is installed with InstallShield) for "Setup.exe command line" returns this help topic as a search result.
