<DIV><SPAN class=049172121-08052007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I
found the problem with my D2007 Help install - the DVD I was installing from
failed to read one large help file - I watched it retry for about 5 minutes and
then give up and continue with no error message. I was a little bemused
the installer could miss some files without giving any
warning.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=049172121-08052007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>The
installer I wrote for (non-Delphi software) always had a packing list as part of
it - if any of the files were not not found at the destination end the installer
would abort. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=049172121-08052007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Is checking for all files a feature or not in most Windows
installers? - eg Inno Setup (which I use). For Inno Setup I presume
there the fact everything is in one file more or less means all have to arrive
at the destination, otherwise the installer will not run....</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
