Now I have migrated across from Installshield so I am quite green when it comes to Installaware. I am using Installaware 9 Studio edition.
Is there a quick launch wizard or section where I can easily add redistributables such as Direct x9 for example? Does InstallAware Include some redistributables already in the program?
If there isn't a quick launch easy feature to do this, how do I add Direct X into my project?
Adding Redistributables into the Project.
I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding your question so my apologies if I have.
Select the Design tab and under Application Information select the Application Runtimes node. Microsoft DirectX9b is listed there. Is that what you are looking for?

yeah that's exactly it. Can't believe I missed it.
I have another question regarding the Finish Dialog. I have been trying to run a launcher for my projectafter checking the box and pressing finish. Except I have come across a little problem.
Every time I run the installer everything works except when I get to the finish dialog the project starts up before I have pressed finish. This is currently what my MSI code looks like and I will highlight what I placed in there.
Hide Dialog
Display Dialong: finish, wait for dialog to return (model)
if Variable SILENT Equals FALSE
if Variable REBOOTCOMPUTER Equals TRUE
if Variable SUCCESS Equals REBOOT
Reboot Computer
end
end
if Variable RUNAPP Equals True
if Variable REMOVE Equals FALSE
if Variable SUCCESS Equals COMPLETE
Run Program $TARGETDIR$\\(name of project).exe (WAIT)
end
end
end
end
So that's the finish dialog code that I have displayed and where I have my run program placed. I am just wondering is there something I need to add to get this working. It's been eating at me for a few days now.
