Returning to InnoSetup

Hello ,

Last week I was trying to publish Al Nakheel software in one of the websites but the admins their complaint of the difficulty installing the program,So I was thinking of making new setup Program for the Application using more advanced tool Like InnoSetup.

I wanted the setup to include:

1-Language selection (English and Arabic right now)
2-License agreement.
3-Checking for installed prerequisites and install them is not installed:
    MS SQL Server 2008 express and make new instance silently
    Crystal report 13 runtime
    .NET framework 4.0
These three programs should be installed from disk not downloaded and according to the system type (32bit or 64bit).

4-Asking about dir location ,start menu Title.

Innosetup is script driven using InnoScript and Pascal lang which I do not know anything yet ,but It worths a try besides I need to make English version of Al Nakheel and That's so cool.

I need ten days to two weeks maximum .
Keep coding guys see you.

Soooq.org is finished

what is Soooq ?

Soooq is an interface for advertizing for goods which Al Nakheel User is working on , Or it is a search engine for finding products which are being sold by Al Nakheel user.

The mechanism of advertizing in the Soooq is automatically done by Al Nakheel Application without any interaction from the user.

Soooq is pretty straight forward website and it is meant to be accessible from PCs and Mobile devices
