ADO+D5+MS Access Application Deployment using InstallSheld Express

Does anyone know what is the correct procedure to deploy Delphi application
written for Access backend and using ADO components?
I have InstallShield express that came with D5 but I can't find anything
relevant there.
I have downloaded MDAC 2.5 from MS site but I would prefer installing
everything using a single installation script.

Look at an installer that can automatically install MDAC for you:

www.wisesolutions.com

or

www.youseful.com

Installshield for Delphi sucks: you cannot do anything serious with it (f.i.
no objects for installing DAO, English language only, not even an
autorun.inf!)

Best regards, Ronald

If You need to know the .dll and .bpl needed for your application,
ComExplorer from  http://www.4developers.com/ might be useful.
