It's impossible to say what's wrong with those details. What error number
are you receiving? What other changes did you make to the deployment
package? Are you adding any new dependencies or DLL's to the deployment?

Were the changes you made only in the code? What were the changes?

Most of us gave up on the P&D wizard a long time ago. It creates bloated
installations, isn't supported for Windows Installer and installs everything
under the sun with your deployment, including the VB runtimes.

I'm not familiar with them. I use InstallShield myself, I know others who
use Wise.

You might want to ask a question like that in an installer newsgroup. The
people there would know more than I would about the pluses and minuses of
various installers.
