I have been trying to use Inno to create an installation package and I am stuck at
1) Installing the Access 2013 Runtime
2) Creating a desktop shortcut which will run the Runtime and the .accde (which points to the .accdb)

So far I have the following and any hints would be appreciated. BTW, I have checked every installer under the sun...

Code:
; Script generated by the Inno Setup Script Wizard.
; SEE THE DOCUMENTATION FOR DETAILS ON CREATING INNO SETUP SCRIPT FILES!

#define MyAppName "Visual Dentist"
#define MyAppVersion "15.0"
#define MyAppPublisher "Kosmos Business Systems Ltd"
#define MyAppURL "https://www.VisualDentist.com"

#define MyAppExeName "vd5.accde"

Was able to insert a desktop shortcut (not with the correct icon) using the following:


Code:
[Icons]
Name: "{autodesktop}\VisualDentist"; Filename: "{app}\vd5.accde"
