Tip for those using Automation
Just want to post a quick tip that may prove beneficial to other users, regarding Automation for InstallShield 2009.
Inside my old InstallShield 2008 projects I have some Visual Basic script which specifies "IswiAuto14.ISWiProject" to create an instance of the InstallShield COM object:
Please note that the string passed to CreateObject( ) must be changed to "IswiAuto15.ISWiProject" for InstallShield 2009.
