First of all, I really appreciate this product. Allows you a lot of control without unnecessary complexity.

I have a question. I have an app with prereq's of .Net 2.0 Framework and SQL Express. The existing core prerequisite setup allows you to pull down the prepackaged version of the runtimes.

With both of these as pre-req's, my initial download file is large (>80Mb) and I have a lot of abandoned downloads on free trials.

Does setupbuilder have the ability (similar to Vis Stu 2005) to link pre-req's with an external address (in this case Microsoft) so that if they are missing on the client machine, it downloads the file directly from the 3rd party?

This would make my download about 6Mb instead of 80Mb.

Thanks in advance,

Jim Lay
