Has anyone packaged the above before?

It requires the following pre-requisites - DirectX, msxml, NLSDL, VCRedist.

I am thinking at the moment the only way aroung this is creating 5 fixlets - one for the install and four others for the pre-reqs. This of course is going to take a bit of time. If I don’t do this then if a machine has one of the pre-reqs already installed in will go down as a FAILED. So in a effect a baseline.

This all seems a bit much for a DWG Viewer!

Any thoughts people?

anyone had any experience of this? I am still struggling. Think its going to have to be a baseline.

Ben, any thoughts how to approach this?

I think making separate individual Fixlets for each pre-req and them putting them in a baseline is a good idea… do you not like that approach?
