James,
I was looking into that as well, using crtsavf, savlib,  and then rstlib.

Might work better for me as well, thanks!

Here at Touchtone, we've never bothered with anything IBM has provided for product packaging. We find it simpler just create a save file of the relevant library. For QuestView, we have an installer (written in CL) that does a few more things (like preserving anything the user might have put into the product library if he or she is upgrading from a previous release, and moving that previous release into a backup library, and warning the user if either lack of authority or some security system value will block a successful installation), but that installer, along with the "library-image" save file, simply resides in another save file. Once you have a save file, you can then use that save file to generate tapes, or you can FTP it to a PC, ZIP it, and either email it or make it available for download.
