Well, I thought if I register dll, I don't need to worry about the path. As
the application I am writing is a DLL to be used by another application
(lets call it a parent), I don't want to add anything to the parent's
folder. Does it mean that I have to use /codebase switch.
Is there any way of achieving it using Installshield Professional 6.3
TIA,
