I was wondering if there is a web media block for OpenOffice?

Not but it's very easy to create one.. It's rather simple if it's an MSI file, to install not to create the web media block or even if it's not, if there is a silent install mode, you can do it..

Technically speaking, a web media block is just an archive, a collection of files seperate from the main setup.exe file. It may contain one or more runtimes and some or all of the main application, depending on how you crafted the application.

What you are really asking for is a runtime :)

This is related to somthing I was considering. I use Xceed Components and I don't want to include all these dll in my webdownload each time since they don't change often.

So what you are saying is I can create a seperate msi installed with installaware to install these files into the GAC and then make this appear as a prerequisite?

Making the msi is ok no problems there but I was wondering how I get installaware to recognise this installer from another project?
