Thanks for the information. I think it's a IE8 thing because we are using a
standard web form delivery script to submit data.

BTW, we have received your beta information, thank you.

Well, the official statement is (this will be in the beta notifications):

---

"Please note that SetupBuilder 7 is BETA software. It is still being tested
and developed and features may change in future release versions. If you
are not comfortable running BETA software then please DO NOT download
SetupBuilder 7 until it has been more thoroughly tested."

---

And from the Beta Registration Form:

---

"As a prospective beta participant do you agree to:

[X] Test in a non-production environment"

---

But SetupBuilder 7 will be fully backward compatible with SB6 - we are
working on SB6 and SB7 simultaneously. So SB7 "should" not break existing
(stable) SB6 features and functionalities.

If your install compiled with SB7 works fine then feel free to distribute it
to your customers.

By the way, both SetupBuilder 6.x and 7.x can co-exist on the same machine
at the same time.

The real beta testing begins next month, so I am sure (or I hope <g>) you'll
not miss a single SB7 beta ;-)

Have a good move, I know it's awfully stressful and a lot of work!

Well with all the work we have done in the past 6 months or so, it's not
going to be too bad, but there is still a lot of stuff to sort through;)

Darko,

There are three fundamental new technologies in SetupBuilder 7:

1. Visual Dialog Editor (VDE)
2. Support for Windows Installer (MSI)
3. Support for Mobile Devices

SetupBuilder 7 provides more than 50 new features.

There are three beta phases planned. We'll always test one fundamental new
technology and several new features per beta phase.

At the moment, LAN Update is scheduled for testing in Beta-2.

Dave,

> Should I have heard anything by now ?

Sorry for the delay. If you have not heard anything by now then your
request is still waiting in the queue. Reviewing the requests and sending
out the initial beta registration notifications is a manual process and
takes longer than expected.

Fiedrich,

I was wondering as well. Anxious to test the PAD file creation and Win
Mobile areas.

BTW, will you be using C7 for Setupbuilder 7?

PAD file creation feature is scheduled for Beta-2, Mobile Device Package
Support for Beta-3.

There are three fundamental new technologies in SetupBuilder 7:

1. Visual Dialog Editor (VDE)
2. Support for Windows Installer (MSI)
3. Support for Mobile Devices

There are three beta phases planned. We'll always test one fundamental new
technology and several new features per beta phase.

The main goal of SB7 Beta-1 is to test the brand new "custom dialog"
technology. This is the heart of the new installer engine ("sbkernel 7").

SetupBuilder 7.0 Beta-1 will include the following:

- New SetupBuilder installer kernel 7.0
- Support for custom dialogs
- Support for custom dialog control events
- DPI-aware installer support
- New Visual Dialog Editor
- New Environment Variables Visualizer
- New Firewall Exceptions Visualizer
- Enhanced command line compiler support
- Additional compiler directives
- Several minor enhancements and fixes

No, we are using C6 for SetupBuilder 7.
