File Name: helper.exe
Target Folder: D:\

I would suggest to also set the Default Folder to D:\

DOes this help?

Wow, I didn't realise it was so simple ... I am almost embarrased for not working this out myself

Thanks again!

Re: Is it possible to launch an application that is the actual install disk

Anyone know the answer to this? If I can get this installer working then I can actually advise my boss to purchase this application otherwise I'll have to look at some uglier options for setting up installations

Is it possible to launch an application that is on the actual install disk

Is it possible to launch an application that resides on the install source location without actually installing it on the desitination machine?

For example my install application is in location d:/setup.exe and a helper application is in d:/helper.exe. Is it possible to launch helper.exe from within setup.exe?

Thanks in advance!
