Hi experts,
I really need help from you regarding P&D:-

1. How to include readme file - for user license in the setup.exe. Similar 
to installshield app. Is it possible to have it? If yes, how to include it?

2. How to change my setup.exe / lst to include modification for changing 
autoexec.bat or system environmnet variables (Win2000). Let me explain by 
example.
In my installation files I have my own independent DLL and LIB which will 
be placed at the same directory as EXE (i.e application directory). This 
DLL can't be self-register, so I want to modify the autoexec.bat or the 
system environment variable info to include in "path" this directory.
How to modify this in setup.exe / lst? Right now I have to do manually -
change the autoexec.bat and I don't want the user do it manually.
Is modifying this autoexec.bat is safe enough for running from network.

Thanks for your help.
