I have an old version of Delphi – v4. After have written a dbase program, I am trying to create an INSTALL program using Install Express (came with) so that I can distribute the program.

It is looking for a set of files called DATADUMP.* ( exe, hlp, and cnt) but they are not anywhere to be found. The Install program will not let me delete the files (required).

Anyone know where I can get these files or can they send to me.

Thanks !

You probably do not have C/S or Enterprise version of Delphi. That is the level
this program comes with. Older versions of Delphi had a bad ISX script that
tried to pull this in. Try the following steps and it should not try to pull in
the datapump executable

1. Locate 'swdepend.ini' on the hard drive
2. Edit the file with notepad.exe
3. precede any references to datapump with ';;' to comment those lines out
4. Save the file and retry the deployment
