bluestar,
 
InnoScript comes with a manual and Inno Setup has a help section that is in the program. You will need to read the instructions to get a general idea of how to use either.
 
What have you done so far...

I un-installed IS and deleted all files left, then re-installed.  The missing input screen now comes up.  Sorry, I guess the pic is attached didn't help you to see that a screen was missing.

You do have to create a InnoScript project first... File->New

Thank you for trying to help.  I have not seen any field which requested this information under the heading of Inno Setup output file.
I will attempt to attach a Word Doc to this response with samples of the screens presented.

JDF,
 
You did not complete the main screen information for where you would like the .iss file to be created.
 
You have to select where your vbp file and put in a location for your .iss file that you want to create.
 
This information is in the documentation
 
Install InnoScript.     https://randemsystems.com/innoscript//  
Install Inno Setup (InnoScript uses Inno Setup).     http://www.jrsoftware.org  
Select your vbp, exe, and application folder and the name of the output .iss file (.tpl file is optional).  
Press OK to convert your project file.  
Edit your script (.iss) with Inno Setup.  
Compile your script with Inno Setup.

After entering info in the Parameter section of Innoscript, I have selected the VB6- program/VBP file folder, I press the OK and receive  the following error message:
   All fields must have valid entries,  Inno Setup Input is empty.
If I knew were to find this field I could put information into it.  However, I don't get a clue from either the printed help documentation or from the sceen menus.

flowerjd,
 
What exactly are you reffering to? What software are you using (with version)? What field? Inno Setup?
 
Can't help unless you give good descriptions.

Help!
  I get an error message - that all fields must have valid entries, Inno Setup Input is empty.
 
Please, where is this field located, what is the title of the input box?
 
Thanks, jdf

Ralph Roberts,
 
No, you are not missing anything. The key phrase is Core Components. These are files that make the OS work and probably come with every version of the OS. Replacing these files could be disasterous for your OS. This is why SAFE MODE does not get files from the OS System folders.If you override this, you should really know what your are doing.
 
To redistribute core components, One should use the MS service packs for that. MS has already done the work.

I found the following statement on the veritest web site:
An important Microsoft logo requirement is that apps must not register, reference count, uninstall, or overwrite any core components of the OS.
It appears the scripts I'm generating violate that requirement.  Am I missing something?  Thanks.
