I have problems to register BDE aliases using InstallShield. The
database is ACCESS.

After the installation, the alias is registered but  the DATABASE field
contains:
        DRIVE/PATH/DATABASE.MDB

I using
    C++ Builder 5
    MS ACCESS database
    InstallShield Express for Builder 5

Help me, please

Joan

Your description sounds as if your install script is not properly
specifying the local variable information for translation at install time.
Are you including the variable names in the "<>" delimiters that IS
expects?

Hello Jerry,

the problem is solved.
in my firts version of then program installer the
    "List any optional parameters for the alias below" in the "BDE alias step
3 of 4"
is empty

using the optional parameters

DATABASE NAME=<INSTALLDIR>\bd\mybd.mdb
DLL32=IDDA3532.DLL
OPEN MODE=READ/WRITE

this work fine
