If you decide to use an external installer, such as InstallShield or a similar program, Progress recommends that your installer perform all the installation tasks required to install the entire application.

When you use an external installer, the installer should:

  • Copy all required files to the end user's machine
  • Create registry entries for WebClient and your application
  • Provide an uninstallation program for the application, typically using the same technology as the installation

Optionally, the installer can create a shortcut for running the application and can perform any additional tasks you want the installation to complete.
