Hello,
i'm building a setup with Inno SETUP, and i have some question about it.
I've build the setup with "deplioment and packahe wizard" in order to see the list of dependences.
I hope the things i need is the [bootstrap Files] and [SETUP1 FILES]

1) wich is the differences between these 2 category? and i need boot list of files, or not?

2) the list has a name of file as "@VB6STKIT.DLL": what is "@" for?

then i have 3 fields:
3) "$(WinSysPathSysFile)", is it destination folder? or source one?
4) "$(DLLSelfRegister)"/"$(TLBRegister)"/"$(DLLSelfRegister)"/"" what they are for? and then how do i use these information in Inno setup?
5) "$(Shared)"/"" same question of 4:what they are for? and then how do i use these information in Inno setup?

6) i have even some with exe or old extention ("@MDAC_TYP.EXE"/"@MSWORD9.OLB") do i have to include them? if yes i have to consider them as dll, ocx or tlb?

7) There some important inforamtion section [Bootstrap] ? (it doesn't seem to me)

If there are too many question i hope someone want to answer to some of them?

Thenks 4 you time!

Have a look at this small (http://visualbasicforum.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22267) tutorial about INNO setup in the Tutors Corner.

1- MDAC_TYP.EXE i don't know what to do with this
2- MSWORD9.OLB and some .tlb: do i consider them as .ocx or .dll?

MDAC_TYPE.EXE is needed to install database drivers. You can find more about them in the second part in the tutorial I just posted.

MSWord9.OLB is for Word automation and should already be installed on the target machines when Office was installed.
You can only use Word automation when Word itself is installed on the target machine
