Hi Blake,
I put the word out to find you an answer and this is what I have come up
with.

I use a program called msicreate. can't remember the direct url, but it's
freeware, and never used installshield. however, I am not very fond of
Microsoft install packages, for the simple fact that it doesn't do any
favors for networks, as it looks for the network's start menu and not the
local machine's.
if I make an installer I use autoit, nsis or inno setup.
hth.

Based on what he wrote I used Google to find the following websites based on
using just the search term "msi create":
A Microsoft web page talking about third party installers is at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257718
A possible web page to find a free product is
http://www.advancedinstaller.com/
There was many more selections to search thru so give it a try.
If I come across anything else I will let you know.

Hi all. Does anyone know of a tool to create Microsoft Windows Installer
MSI

Thanks,
Blake
