John,
Thanks. I'm on the right track then. I have a website explaining partially
why I cannot install the Windows Installer to my Visual Studio 6. (can't
register a common dll MSADDNDR.dll)
http://www.opentechsupport.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=9640
I am unable to perform the last registry task that enables my
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT to inherit permissions. Is all this truly necessary?
Sounds kinda hokey.
Now I'm hoping for a simpler means of installing VSI. Perhaps my Visual
Studio .NET is interfering?
