How to deploy using InstallShield Express 3.0 Borland edition

Hi!
How do I deploy the BDE and its aliases using InstallShield Express 3.03?
(Distributed with BCB6)

Thanks!
Johann

You need to download the BDE Merge Module from Borland.  It can be found
on the Developer Network site:

http://community.borland.com/article/0,1410,25915,00.html

Hope this helps.

But, after downloading, it tells me that it cannot find a proper installed
product. I installed my copy of BCB6 in the c:\cb6 directory.

I know this has been an issue for others.  I had no problem, but I
installed BCB6 in the default directory (Program Files\Borland\....) .

Perhaps you will need to reinstall, but hopefully there may be another
solution out there.  Since I didn't run into this, I don't know of any
solution.

In any case, once you get it working, it does work well.

What is the full path you're using? Maybe I could fake it by placing a copy.
On the website the BCB6 version is not mentioned. Do you still have the BCB5
version installed on your system?

The full path is:

C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder6

I do not have BCB5 installed but I do have BCB4 installed in:

C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder4

Hope this helps.
