   Raoul Watson to All   
   Launching VB invokes Installshield   
   08 Jun 08 19:16:50   
   
   From: WatsonR@IntelligenCIA.com   
      
   This has happened numerous times in the past and I never can pinpoint what   
   caused it.   
   It has to do with Installshield (either a failed software removal or   
   installation).   
      
   When a source code is opened, or VB is launched, the Installshield dialog   
   comes up   
   as of it is trying to install a software. It will then err out with a dialog   
   "The feature you are trying to use is on a CD Rom or other removable   
   media..Insert   
   Installshield disk..etc." when you cancel it comes up with "Error 1706: No   
   valid   
   source can be found for product Installshield Express.." If you hit cancel   
   again,   
   it may take two or three times but eventually VB loads. Running any source   
   code   
   may also bring up this dialog..   
      
   No one seems to have experienced this weird happening...
