Hi Peter,
without understanding what it means (!)
the information in dbeinst.txt seems to imply that Delphi will
generate the .INF file for you.
- MIKE LANCE
cut from dbeinst.tx below...
To use the BDE in an ActiveX control, deploy the BDEINST.CAB file:
1. With your ActiveX project open in the IDE, choose
Project | Web Deployment Options. Select the Project
tab and check Deploy Additional Files.
2. Select the Additional Files tab. Click Add, then select
BDEINST.CAB (in the ...\BDE directory). Click OK.
3. Later, when you choose Project | Web Deploy, Delphi 4 generates an
.INF file for your project. To use BDEINST.CAB, you'll need to edit
this file manually. Open the file in an editor and replace
Bdeinst.cab=Bdeinst.cab
with
Bdeinst.dll=Bdeinst.dll
Then replace
[Bdeinst.cab]
file=<filename>
with
[Bdeinst.dll]
file=http://<your server path here>/Bdeinst.cab
clsid={FB99D710-18B9-11DO-A4CF-00A024C91936}
RegisterServer=yes
FileVersion=4,5,1,4
The example below shows an edited .INF file. Lines that have been
added or changed are marked with an asterisk (*). Do not include the
asterisks in your .INF file.
