msiexpert created the topic: Can I use Createinstall to copy files to Word startup folder
Dear sir or madam,
I am working on an application that requires the following actions:
1. copy a word template file gt4word.dot to Word startup folder:
application data + “\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP”
2. Check if Word is running before installation.
3. Kill a process gt4t.exe (my own application) before installation
4. Open a .doc file and start newly installed gt4t.exe upon successful installation.
I have achieved all above with an unpaid version of installshield. While I seriously considering buying an installer maker, installshield is not an option as it is far too expensive for an individual like me. If I can use createinstall to achieve my goals, I would like to buy the product.
Please check dallascao.com/gt4t/ to have a look of my application.
Sincerely,
Dallas
