Hi George,
Actually, LabVIEW 8.1 already has this capability. In 8.1, when it prompts you for the CD - there is an option to "Cache components from this distribution" (checked by default). Everything needed to build that distribution is copied down to the hard drive, and you won't be prompted for the CD again (unless you choose a different set of products that haven't been "cached" yet).

Thanks. I was saw that and was wondering what it meant exactly (couldn't find much documentation about it). I wasn't sure if those copied componemts only work for that distribution. I build a fair amount of executables for different apps. Will I have to have the CD the first time for each different app I build? What about modified builds of the same app? Ideally those copied components would go to a known location so that the installer builder would look there everytime you check a box in the additional installers tab.
