Automatic OS Updater for MDAC/JET/DCOM (VB & VC++)

            The Automatic OS Updater (Full Version) will detect your OS and then installs the VB Runtime files, VC++ Runtime files, MDAC 2.8, MDAC 2.0 and Jet Engines 4.0 (Access 97 and up) and 3.51 (Access 95 and 97). This you might want to include in your packages to make sure that the users computers are current before installing your app. You can run the utility silently with no user intervention by including the /VERYSILENT /NORESTART switches in your command line. This package can usually fix the problems that some software vendors create when they force old dll/exe/ocx files onto your computer (Yes, they do that!!!, we could name a few but they would not be too HAPPY about it!!!). Just install this package after you install their software and your troubles should disappear.

        We have also included seperate installations for the Auomatic OS Updater so that you may include these smaller installation in your setup packages for the individual OS. Each one includes everything that you need for that OS.

        Ex.

        c:\ > VB_VC_DCOM_MDAC_JET_Autosetup.exe /VERY SILENT /NORESTART

        Or you can add this to your Inno Setup Script using (of course change the source file location):

         InnoScript will do this automatically for you. Just include one of the Automatic OS Updaters on the main screen.
