Acrobat plug-in

Postby martie » Mon Oct 30, 2006 6:01 pm

can someone tell me the steps for installing an Acrobat plug-in?

I need to do this...
1. check if registry key exists HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\App Paths\\Acrobat.exe
2. If registry exists, install a file into the folder found in the registry value Path of HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\App Paths\\Acrobat.exe
3. if registry doesn't exist, show a message to alert user file can't be installed.

i'm not sure how to do it with InstallAware. ??

Switch to the MSIcode view (ALT+C) and script it in.

1) Use the Check Registry command.
2) Use the Read Registry, Extract Path, If, End, and Install Files commands.
3) Use the MessageBox, Else commands.

Easy :)
