Office 2003 (MS Access) package - MST install
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 2 comments
Hi,
I have created a MST install file for an MS access installer, the installer is working with the transfor file command but I want to have this in a package file.
The purpose is to download the package.exe from a web link or ftp server and run the file. This would extract the package and run the setup command with the mst file.
My stroggle is now how to combine the MS access (or office)install files, msi ... into one package exe that will extract and run the setup?
Can this be done by wise package suite or do I need to use an other tool (the tools in WPS look more to create a complete new package)
TX

Use Wisescript
I would use Wisescript to create an installer which will deploy the installation files to the temp folder, then kick off the install with the appropriate command line - ie using %SYS32%\msiexec.exe as the executable in the Execute Program command, with the argument field set to something like:
/i <path>\filename.msi TRANSFORMS=<path>\filename.mst /qb!
If you use the "wait for exit" option in the Execute Program command, you can end the wisescript with a cleanup of the installed source files from the temp folder.
If your issue has been solved, please use the "Mark as Solution" link on the most relevant thread.
