    I am at the end of creating a wizard to install MDAC, MSDE, restore a database and then back it up. aaaaarrrggh what a.......!! What the issue is, is that the MSDE install is in the middle and requires a re-boot so i have added some reg keys to kick off the wizard when it comes back up in the run-once key. When it comes back up it says the "file is not found 53" and doesn't start the wizard obviously. What am i doing wrong? The key added holds the value G:/MSDESetup.exe as this is where the exe is stored. Any help greatly appreciated.... Many Thanks Harry

      Is the G: drive is a network mapped drive? You might want to try moving the startup for the wizard into the user's Programs/StartUp menu instead of RunOnce. The drive might not exist when the RunOnce key is parsed and executed. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, gastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome
