I've been looking at various posts across this forum and I have been able to get Adobe Acrobat 7.0.7 to install silently. However I have been trying to package it so I can put it into my HFSVPK_SW or HFSVPK folder for an HFSLIP disc I am building.

Currently, I have the cab, msi, a setup.exe, a setup.ini, and a custom transform file I produced through Installshield Tuner. I can click on the setup executable and it installs silently everytime - no errors. I have been attempting to use iexpress as suggested by tarquel in another post, but I am always getting installation errors. Basically it says xyz file cannot be found in the folder the installer extracts to.

So what I am looking for is either another way to package the files I have into a silent installer, or how to use IExpress so it doesn't give me this error.

Thanks in advance.

Mizpah, are you trying to install Acrobat or the free Adobe Reader program?

There is a silent install file on RyanVM's home page (http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn) already packaged for the reader.

If you are trying to package an Acrobat install, you could probably also get support on RyanVM's forums.

Cool, thanks.

I was at that site plenty of times yesterday, there must have been outdated links, because I only saw the Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0.5. Everytime I clicked on it, it gave me a 404, that makes sense now. Yes I am trying to do this for Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0.7. I will go there and download it, but I am trying to learn how to do these things since it is new to me. I'll ask questions around there, thanks again.
