Installation Project

Hi, I have an application suite of 3-4 applications that were built using vb6 and .net2. They use the latest version of msde and sqlexpress. I need the to create a setup that will install all these applications and the prerequisites if not already installed which are .net 2 msxml6 vb6 runtime msagents runtime and characters msde or sqlexpress (i will be upgrading to sqlexpress) sqlserver management studio express run database scripts on the installed database create an odbc data source turn off windows firewall make security changes to msdtc install a net service application make a registry change based on user entry There are two separate installs which will be almost identical server and client. The only real difference is that for the server there are two database servers installed and the user must must be allowed to choose what database to install. I have currently have an install built using installshield 10.5, but it is not done well. I also have installshield 12 so that would be my preference, but i am open to other installation technologies. The install must be able to detect if previous versions of the software already exist. Install shield allows you to create packages that can be installed directly from the web. That would be preferable. The install must look very professional. Please only bid if your english skills are excellent.
