Packaging ActiveX to MSI in Admin Studio
Hi!
Is it a way in Admin Studio to create an MSI from a ActiveX?
I don´t have any EXE-file and the ActiveX shows only when I go to a certain webpage. So I have to do some sort of capture.
In Wise package studio it was easy to do but using Admin Studio I don´t find how to do it.
Please help!
Greetings

check to make sure you're not using SmartMonitor, then you should be able to go on without providing an exe, just click next on the screen.
You start a setup capture and install the ActiveX in your browser. You should then capture the files that go into the Downloaded Program Files folder.
Personally I tend to set all DLL files that come in the download to self-register for an ActiveX package.
Hi! Thanks for the answer, but when I run setup capture, Repack.exe? a setup-file is required, which I don´t have. The ActiveX is prompted in the topbar when I open the webpage.

you don't have to provide a setup.exe if you use snapshotting I believe
or if you can't get past that stage, you can always provide notepad.exe as your 'setup' - pjgeutjens 13 years ago
What is the title/name for this Active-X control?

It´s from IBM Lotus Notes ActiveX. But is it possible in Adminstudio to just run setup capture without specify an exe? - Spockman 13 years ago
