Hi, I did my installer using the Package and Deployment Wizard. When I tested my installer, I encountered this error:

The File 'C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\msftqws.pdw\$(DLLSelfRegisterEX)' could not be registered because it was not found.

have any idea what is this error?

This problem can occur under the following conditions:

You are including the Microsoft Calendar Control (MSCal.ocx) in your Run-Time Setup.

There is a reference to the MSCal.ocx file in your list of library references.

hi

I had this problem. This is a known issue with microsoft and the advice on thier web site was to open the .lst file that is produced while making a set up file. Look for the offending entry and chande the (DllselfregiserEX) part to (pdwselfregisterex)

This should do the trick

It is a bug. There is no such thing as "$DLLSelfRegisterEX"

Microsoft's bug. That is what both anis and Big Boabby are trying
to tell you.
