Hi

I have installed a bespoke programme on a customer's site.

I have a setup exe that installs the workstation components.

When I load the my bespoke programme I repeatedly get:
"Microsoft Publisher 2002. Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Publisher 2002."

I click cancel a few times and eventually my application loads fine.

I am unable to replciate this problem on another install.
 
Prior to the Publisher 2002 prompt it briefly comes up with "Windows Installer. Preparing to install".
If its of any help, the setup package I created with Package & Deployment Wizard and includes the following:

[Bootstrap]
SetupTitle=Install
SetupText=Copying Files, please stand by.
CabFile=FSD1TOPS.CAB
Spawn=Setup1.exe
Uninstal=st6unst.exe
TmpDir=msftqws.pdw
Cabs=1

The latter 2 (whtTextBoxControl.ocx and DateRangeForm.dll) are my own.

Many thanks in advance
 
I'm sure I've seen something like this if there is already a setup.exe sitting in the temp folder. Might be worth checking.
