eDrawings 2009
Hello,
i want to deploy the eDrawings CAD Viewer 2009 on my Clients. First i extract the File to get the MSI. Then i read on you KB to add some RegKeys, and thats my problem, whats the best way to set the RegKeys? In the MSI File? as .REG file? or other way to deploy to the Clients?
Because i want to deactivate the Update function and other Onlien checking and anoying stuff for users.
If i know how to put the Keys into the installation of eDrawings i want to deploy the msi with AD so the Users get the Installation with the next reboot.

Hello,
thanks for your answer, so i got orca now and start to make a new Transformfile.
In Tables i set "Registry". On the right side i can add a new Row. Possible to show me correct row to add there?
i think
Registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USERS\Software\eDrawings\e2009\General
Root: ? i dont know
Key: "Spawn"
Name: -
Value: "eModelViewer.exe"
Component: -
is the right? Got the Information about the Keys from http://itninja.com/link/ms-java-vm-support-page2

Thomas, if you have Orca, I'm guessing you downloaded the SDK. That will contain MSI.CHM which will have details about the different tables.
The 'Root' column is misleadingly named. It ought to be named 'Hive'. Anyway, this column should contain a number:
-1
If this is a per-user installation, the registry value is written under HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
If this is a per-machine installation, the registry value is written under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
0
Use the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT hive.
1
Use the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive
2
Use the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE hive
3
Use the HKEY_USERS hive

Hello,
thank you, i found the Manual. So if i understand right.
Im just installing some Regkey after the Main Installation of eDrawings so i can set a Randomname in Component because its not important to set the keys to an existing File.
I think i have to search on web so get more information, the manual is not so easy to understand but i hope to be right and will test the mst.
thank you
