Hi there,
hope someone can point me to the proper direction.
I am about to create a setup project where the file "serpdrv" (w/o
extension) is included. Everything works fine, besides the fact that
"serpdrv" will not be in the destination directory after executing
setup.exe and thus, when starting the application, an error message is
created saying that a device is "not found", probably because the driver
"serpdrv" is missing. When copying this file manually to the destination
directory everything works fine again.

Are there any particular issues I have to consider when including
"serpdrv" with the setup process, so it will be installed automatically?

Tanks in advance.

Klaus,

From the "Build Application or Shared Library" screen, select the "Source
Files" tab. Then Select the "Custom Destinations" button. Then select the
file in the file list box (serpdrv in this case) and
choose "Install Directory" for the installation directory. Remove any path
in "relative path" box. This should do it.
