  1. I´ve managed, (after too many hours), to make an MSI-package of VS6 EE, with SP5 and SP6 integrated. Since SP5/6 are not cumulative I strongly recommend to add both. I never did find any MSI-packages or guides of how to make an MS out of this installation, so I made my own. The total size of the package came down to 122MB, so if your goal was to have onto a cd, that´s no problem either. I can see why MS didn´t bother to make an MSI outta this, as with Office and other products, ´cause it was hell to fix. I used Wise for Windows Installer (there are newer versions, but this is nicer to work with). 1: Start Wise for Windows Installer 2: Make a Start Capture (1:st snapshot) 3: Install VS6 4: Reboot 5: Install SP5 and SP6 6: Reboot 7: Run the utility "SSINT.EXE" found in ...\COMMON\VSS\Win32 at the default settings. This is to edit VB.INI and VBADDIN.INI to make Visual Source Safe integrate with Visual Basic 6 as an add-in module. 8: Make End Capture. (2:nd snapshot) (If you get a question to use MERGE MODULES, don´t use it, but install the files instead.) 9: Remove all selfregister DLL/OCX except VBSCC.DLL or you may get an "'Source Code Control' could not be loaded" error at startup of Visual Basic 6. 10: Run the utility "SSINT.EXE" found in ...\COMMON\VSS\Win32 at the default settings. This is to edit VB.INI and VBADDIN.INI to make Visual Source Safe integrate with Visual Basic 6 as an add-in module. 11: Under Files-section (Wise) remove all tempfiles or else you wont be able to compile the package. (there´s to many files to be listed here...) 12: Do the same under the Registry-section. 13: Compile and test-install. If you encounter any problems, you can mess me @ICQ-UIN: 348-964-687 Good luck, and hopes this helps someone.
  2. I´ll try cmdlines. If I should succeed I´ll report back to you here.
