Hi
 
I'm just getting used to InnoScript [v9.2]/InnoSetup, and am on my second project [an install for a vb6 program using DAO].
 
InnoScript has determined that the microsoft file vb5db should be part of the install, and assigns it the ignoreversion flag:
Source: f:myprogsetupsupportvb5db.dll; DestDir: {sys}; Flags:  ignoreversion;
 
However when I run the script in InnoSetup, I get the warning:
'*** Starting compile.  [10:36:49]

What should I do - what would be more appropriate flags?
 
thanks
