When I recently tested a Runtime application (made in Developer 6) that I installed from a CD onto a Mac (running OS 9.2), it replaced the following extensions in my System Folder:

Microsoft OLE Automation (v2.20)

Microsoft OLE Library (v2.22)

with earlier versions of the same extensions (v2.08). This meant that when I next launched Internet Explorer and Excel, I was prompted to reinstall both. Has anyone else experienced this? Seems odd that FileMaker included earlier versions of the extensions on their latest version of Developer.

FileMaker allows the developer to install any extension he puts in certain folders. So it's the developer

Thanks - I'll use an installer app in future. But which is the easiest to use (as a developer): Stuffit Installer Maker or InstallerWISE?

The Wise installer is easier than InstallShield (then again, anything would be easier). I use Setup Factory, which is both cheaper and easier than anything I've come across. www.indigorose.com

There are also some shareware installers and a couple of freeware, but you get what you pay for.
