The author knows his stuff, but I was really disappointed with this book. I want to use the InstallShield IDE to quickly modify Microsoft Installer attributes.The linkage between these two was poorly described. I also wanted to see more discussion of typical installation scenarios - multiple files installed in multiple locations depending upon existing applications (plug-ins, etc) instead of the standard Program Files folder for a single application. Also a discussion of tracking/updating revisions in the registry would have been useful.I'd have liked to see more stress put on teaching the MS Installer and it's attributes. This book was tailored more toward the Standard InstallShield user. Many basic principles and quite a discussion about InstallScript.
