I saw this today on the microsoft site. Anyone here use it?
Is it better than the VB Package and Deployment wizard?
Thanks

In truth, just about anything is better than the P&DW.

However, if you are thinking of changing, I personally would
recommend innosetup, it's free and very good.

I'll give that a try as well. Tried the Installer, makes a much smaller
install package, so thats one thing better.
