Just been reading an interesting article about Windows Installer and it has
got be thinking. The article is at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/smartclien...ntegration.asp
and is titled "Application Resiliency: Unlock the Hidden Features of Windows
Installer" by Michael Sanford.
What I would like to do is use the features of Windows Installer to add or
remove application components and have these components available on the
start menu but without having to add code for everyone - have some sort of
way of adding new components such as Forms as they become newly available.
My idea is getting the application once a week or whenever to check for new
available Forms and add them automatically to the menu of Forms available to
the system and install them and call them without any extra code being added.
Can anyone advise me of what is the best way to do such a thing?
Cheers in advance.
