I would think you could just modify the *.lst file to not copy that particular file. My research reveals the following... the Setup.lst file contain a complete list of the files that the setup programs (setup.exe and setup1.exe) need to install on the user's computer. Each file is listed individually, on its own line, and must use the following format: Filex= file,install,path,register,shared,date,size[,version] More info here; Manually Editing a Setup.lst File good luck. shark
