convert executable and supporting files to msi

Hello all,

 

Wanting to know if it is possible, or if anyone has tried, to roll a labview executable and supporting files into a .msi microsoft installer package.  Wanting to do this for its auto exection and encryption.  I have attempted using third party applications like "Advanced Installer" and Altris wise package studio with no avail.  I found the following old post describing this exact problem using a different third party applicaiton and labview 6.1.  I am currently running Labview 2011 professional.

I know that Lab-windows can be used to package a .msi installer but I do not have access to it nor am I trained to use it.

 

Just wanting some information, any information, on how to make this happen.

When you built the exe in the project, you should have noticed the option to create an installer. Fully documented in the LabVIEW help.
