You can explicitly run "NALWIN /A"
You can Chain Apps

In Short, If you chain apps, when you launch one it will ensure all of the
others are installed as well.

Example - You might have a bunch of apps that point to spreadsheet files and
you may link/chain those to an Office Bundle so that if Office is not
installed, it will instll office and then open the spreadsheet.

Or you may have an application that requires .NET and JAVA. Chain your apps
to your .NET and JAVA installs and when you install your app that requires
the others, it will install those as well.

Well Either......

#1 - Make Each Object Force run and assign it a priority number (Mark it as
"Wait on Force Run)
#2 - Force Run Once Object and Chain the others.

If they are not set to force run, they will run when somebody clicks on
them.
