Re: Install program and policies.

Not for a single package. However, a specific package can be deployed by the
administrators on specific desktops, without or with little user
intervention. One example are group policies, that allow software to be
assigned to users. This requires your Install Shield package to be
re-packaged into an MSI file. The software may be installed either the next
time they login, or when they try to open a document that is associated by
extension with your software package. Alternatively, SMS/Systems Centre can
be used to deploy software.

Alternatively, if what you are deploying is just one library (I assume - a
DLL?), then you can create a custom install script that copies the library
from a central location into a folder that the user has access to (such as
their home folder - not a best practice though). The custom install script
then needs to modify the PATH environment variable for the user and amend it
witht he path for the DLL. By default, DLLs will be looked for in a number
of locations, including the paths in the PATH environment variable. More

Hi,

I have the following problem. I develop a library and I deploy this
library with installshield. Users (colleagues) install it on their
computers. Until yesterday, all ran perfectly. Now the policies have
been changed, and the user cannot install anything on his computer.

It's possible to change the policy to allow to install only a specific
package?

thank you,
mirko
