I have a VB6 application deployed using a setup program created by Wise Installation System 9.0 (Professional). Wise 9.0 does not install under Windows Vista, so I need a new setup program to replace Wise, hopefully one that is simple, easy to use and free. I need you to create a setup script for the new setup program. Please tell me which setup program you intend to use, why, and how much it costs to purchase (if anything). Task Description: Using my VB 6.0 Wise script as a template, create a setup script in a new setup program of your choice (in English). I will pay you quickly providing that the script: - Compiles on my PC - Produces a compiled EXE or MSI file - Installs my application successfully under Vista - Provides my application with full read/write permissions to the installation directory under Windows Vista (e.g. c:Program filesMyApp) - The script should work with XP, Vista, 2003 Server More information about the current setup program including dependencies in contained in the attached word document. It is possible that you may not have all of the required 3rd party libraries, but no matter, you should still be able to create the setup script for me even if you can't produce the final compiled setup file yourself. The script will need to be able to install: MDAC 2.6 Service PAck 1 DAO 3.5 & DAO 3.6 VB Service Pack 5 HTML Help if required by the version of Windows I will supply a full copy of the exiting Wise script if you win the work. ESSENTIAL CRITERIA: - An experienced VB 6.0 programmer - Experienced at creating setup files - Ideally have some previous experience in Wise Professional - Have used some or all of the 3rd party libraries Please describe whether you meet the essential criteria

Use InnoSetup for making sure your setup file complies with any environment. Also, it has ability for system checking and attach as many as installation files as required.

Hello. Why do you still want to use VB6? Do you want more compatibility issues in future? Let me create the setup with NSIS freeware installer. I already have expirience creating setup for my own application. It installs on Windows 2000/XP/Vista and looks very good. Maksym.
