Well if you are using Delphi 2.0, you can use the InstallSheild that comes
with it (an excellent package). You can also purchase InstallSheild 3.0 which
will do 16 or 32 bit install programs...it is a bit expensive, but very nice
to use. Aside from that, if you plan to write your own, you can use API and I
in Windows 3.1, you use DDE calls to create groups and icons on the
desktop...InstallSheild takes care of all that for you.
