Topic: [ALREADY IMPLEMENTED] Select .ini file from command-line

Hi,

I'm currently in the process of creating a tool to automate the creation of an unattended setup (Making the process of creation unattended wink ). I was wondering if it's possible to select a DPs_BASE.INI from the command-line. I've saved the settings for various OS'ses to different files and right now I just use a batch file to rename the DPs_BASE.INI to DPs_BASE.old and then rename one of the other ini-files to WXPPROSP2_NL.INI (depending on OS selection wich is done earlier in the process).

right now i'm looking at the following file list:
DPs_BASE.INI
WXPPROSP2_NL.INI
WXPPROSP2_EN.INI
W2K3.INI
etc..
etc..

It would be nice to have something like "DPs_BASE.exe -ini=WXPPROSP2_NL.INI".

There are tools released by Microsoft that will let you create your own answer files and they are on CD.. I can't remember the file structure right now but try under tools or addons.. there's a cab file that contains all programs like that

Before you start creating such a software, you should check whether the existing ones do not do what you want to achieve already.
