Upgrade IS 11.0 project to IS 2010 issue: wants Demo32.exe

[dongleboy]

I've inherited an application that is installed using, it seems, InstallShield 11.0. I do not have any previous version of InstallShield on my workstation or available to me.

I puchased IS 2010 (Professional with SP1 HotFix 52410 installed) and am attempting to build the project. IS 2010 did perform the upgrade step with no errors and a few warnings.

But when I attempt to build the project, it throws a -7401 error: "The DemoShield player required to display the specified browser was not found." I have found in various KB release notes that the DemoShield product was dropped after IS 12.0.

My question is: how can I remove the depedency on demo32.exe in the build (and why didn't the upgrade handle this)? Do I need to rebuild the installation project? (I am a newbie to Installshield, so plz be gentle.)

Thanks!

In the Direct Editor, select to the ISRelease table. For any rows in the ISRelease table, ensure that the CDBrowser column is empty.
