This is the situation: I have developed an application that uses DAO interface. This application has to run in any PC (WINNT) and I don't know if Access (or the DAO support) is installed. But I have got the executable file (MS Redist) that installs the DAO support. I have to create an installation package for my application (.msi file) and I'd like that this package installs the DAO support before installing my application. I don't like to insert a line of code in my application in order to solve this problem, because is not a software requirement required by the customer and because my application has already been test. I think that it is possible to solve this problem but I don't know how !!!

If I have well understood, you suggest me to insert a line of code in my application in order to launch the installation file. I'd like to don't modify the source code of my application. I'd prefer that the installation package makes this operation. Is it possible ??
