Dave,
Thank you for your reply.
The project I am working on is an existing project which is very complicate, they used several third party tools, while create setup file, it also need to register these tools, I just did a little changes on it. If I use InnoSetup, I need to rewrite all these .wse files, I am fraid of missing some logic, do you have any good idea?

Dave,
If I following the same logic to rewrite the installation script file using InnoSetup file, will I have the same problem as installMaster??
Also is it easy to convert .wse file to InnoSetup script file?
Thanks!

I have no idea. Like I said, I've never used InstallMaster.
You really should be asking the people who wrote InstallMaster these questions. It doesn't seem to be handling MDAC correctly, or, your code was written against an old version of MDAC. Truthfully, it wouldn't surprise me since you're still using VB6.

Hey guys,
if I start my project, I can see it in the taskmanager.
Is it possible to make it just visible in the processes (not in the applications)??? 
|
|
|
|
|
I don't know if this works in VB6, but try setting the form border to ToolWindow.
|
|
|
|
|
Nope, doesn't work 
|

OK, another idea: What if you design and install your program as a windows service?
|
|
|
|
|
How do you start your program?
Meaning do you start if from an install or from your development tool?
Is this happening on more than one computer?
Normally you should see it in both the processes and applications tab without doing anything.
Keeping it out of applications tab will be more challenging tho.
|
|
|
|
|
both.
Yes i normally see it in both tabs, but I only want to see it in the processes tab!
(Like Office Outlook)
Is this possible?
|

What special edition on Outlook do you have that does not show in the Applications tab? It shows in both on my 2010 edition, and also did with all previous versions I have ever had installed.

Outlook 2007
I see no application... Only the "OUTLOOK.EXE" in the 'Processes' Tab
|
|
|
|
|
And what exactly do you think that is? 
|
|
|
|
|
You misunderstand, some there are two tabs in task manager, titled 'Applications' and 'Processes'.
He is saying his program appears in both the 'Applications' tab and the 'Processes' tab and he wishes to remove his entry from the 'Applications' tab.
|

|
|
You're right, I misread it. But when I fire up my Outlook 2007 I see it both in Applications AND processes... ?!?!?!

If you look in the Taskbar notifications area (Windows 7) you can see running apps that do not have visible windows or icons on the main part of the taskbar. These apps show up in the process list but not in the application list of Task Manager. There are a number of MS applications that do this and behave somewhat like a background task, generally doing nothing until the user right clicks the icon and initiates some action.
It's time for a new signature.

Try setting the showintaskbar property to false
|

Please reply to the correct person, i.e. the one asking the question.

This article[^] explains how to do it in C++/Win32, so it may be of some help.

Try setting the ShowInTaskbar property to false because apps that are not displayed in the taskbar will not be displayed in the applications tab if you have noticed.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes I already use the property but it doesn't work... 
|
|
|
|
|
Try setting the form's TaskVisible property to False
|
|
|
|
|
Sry but I see no TaskVisible property from my form?
*EDIT*
ooh sry its APP.TaskVisible = false

Sorry for my mistake too. Hope you got it

Use this statment:
App.TaskVisible = False
This statment will hide your form from applications list. And it can be seen at Process.
If you Run it From IDE, it will not create any process. It is executed from IDE(vb6).
