Today I came across a problem with an installation script for a deployment package I’m putting together. Basically, I had a batch file that called regsvr32 with the /s switch (silent option so message boxes don't pop up) to register some DLLs and the registration was failing (due to FoxPro runtime files not being installed) but regsvr32 didn’t report any errors! I have since switched to using reggie.exe a regsvr32 replacement that thoughtfully provides nice error messages.
