SOLUTION: Remove line containing reference to OLE2UI.DLL in SETUPWIZ.INI
PROBLEM: Sharing violation
SOLUTION: Change protection on VBRUN300.DLL and SETUPKIT.DLL to read-only.
PROBLEM: Other Sharing problems:
SOLUTION: Including the /F switch on share my problems went away. SHARE.EXE defaults to some (I forget) amount of space allocated to locking information without the /F switch. I set the /F switch finally to around 7100 (I think) and all my weird sharing problems vanished
PROBLEM: Compress can't find files:
SOLUTION: COMPRESS.EXE will only take a limited length command line. If SetupWizard is in a subdir that is nested too deep, then COMPRESS will not work properly. You will encounter a 'File does not exist' error when in actuality the file does exist. To work around this problem, move the SETUPKIT subdir up one or more directory levels until COMPRESS works. ALSO: Try moving the compress.exe up to the c:\vb directory but be sure to change the setupwiz.ini file (fourth line for the compress=) to show the new location.
Put a copy of compress.exe in a directory in your path! (or, change your path to include the \SETUPKIT\KITFILES\ directory. It seems that setup apprentice copies compress.exe to a temporary directory called setupwiz and executes it from there. However, it will only do this once during a windows session. It then erases the file even though it is still running!!!!
PROBLEM: Screen saver forces compression into the background as a minimized icon.
SOLUTION: The standard command .PIF file may not have the EXECUTION = EXCLUSIVE on some computers. As a result, the DOS shells for compressing files may sit in the background. Now shell with parameter makes the task active with focus.
