Packaging and deploying using visual basic 6.0.

I developed a program using visual basic 6.0. I want to create a setup program that has an agreement page (i.e. it has two buttons ,I agree and I don’t agree buttons, so that if a user does not agree to the terms of agreement, he/she will not install the program). I used the packaging and deployment tool provided with visual basic 6.0, it does not create an agreement page. How could I create a setup program that contains an agreement page? I appreciate your help.

Thanks.

Quite simply:
RetVal = Shell(App.Path + "\install\My_Prog\setup.exe", 1)

The above example is part of an install program with five options. Three are different setup routines, and two are configuration routines. The whole thing is autorun from a CD. The only thing to remember is that the Shell routine is a separate thread, and therefore control returns to the calling program once the thread has started. The calling program should wait for the called program to finish before proceeding.
