| Is there a function either built in to vs.net or seperatly that will allow me to add a serial number to an MSI installer file. |

Wise for Windows Installer or Wise for Visual Studio .Net is probably what you are looking for.. http://www.wise.com - Wise.com InstallShield will also do the job, but I don't like it  |

hmmmm.. then I can't help you.. but shouldn't you afford it when you have enough money to get a corporate version of Server 2003? or did you use all your money on that  --------------- if you know what I mean |

Good serial (protection) software is EXPENSIVE. Think $250.00 and up with $1,000.00 being an ok price. BTW: I donated to WWF after I figured it out, which didn't take long. Protection for software is NOT easy. ------------- http://renegademinds.com/" rel="nofollow - Renegade Minds - Guitar Software http://renegademinds.com/Default.aspx?tabid=65" rel="nofollow - Slow Down Music |

Not embarassing at all. Money of course! I use the software, so I donated money. The figuring out things was just for fun. I've used VBOLock before. It's cheap - about $70. There is a free one available, but it's been cracked and is not secure anymore. So, it's ok if you are too worried about cracking...
