Installing Microsoft Data Access Components

From NSIS Wiki

Description

I have supplied the following since most people installing the Microsoft Data Access Components, only choose to install the English version, which may be incorrect for their end users machine. This also contains the proper error handling, which most installs do not use.

This 'Template' can be used for pretty much any Microsoft download with a few modifications. I have cut most of the 'extra' languages out to keep the example simple.

THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE SCRIPT, IT IS INTENDED TO ASSIST THOSE REQUIRING THE INSTALLATION OF THE MICROSOFT DATA ACCESS COMPONENTS FOR A MULTI-LANGUAGE INSTALL.

If you need one not listed above you will have to visit the Microsoft Download site, select the language you are after and scan the page source to obtain the link.

This requires some setup in .OnInit:

Function .onInit
  StrCpy $LANGUAGE_DLL_TITLE "Installer Language"
  StrCpy $LANGUAGE_DLL_INFO "Please select a language:"
  StrCpy $URL_MDAC28 "${URL_MDAC28_1033}"
  StrCpy $OSLANGUAGE "1033"
 
; Insert other Language Blocks Here
 
  !define MUI_LANGDLL_WINDOWTITLE "$LANGUAGE_DLL_TITLE"
  !define MUI_LANGDLL_INFO "$LANGUAGE_DLL_INFO"
  !insertmacro MUI_LANGDLL_DISPLAY
  !undef MUI_LANGDLL_WINDOWTITLE
  !undef MUI_LANGDLL_INFO
  InitPluginsDir
  SetOutPath "$PLUGINSDIR"
  File "Common\Plugins\*.*"
  File /r "${NSISDIR}\Plugins\*.*"
FunctionEnd

Macros

!macro IsMDAC28Installed
   push $0
   push $1
   ; format 2.80.1022.3
   ReadRegStr $0 HKLM "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DataAccess" "Version"
   StrCmp "$0" "" _MDAC28notInstalled
   StrCpy $1 "$0" 1
   IntCmp $1 "2" _MDAC2 _MDAC28notInstalled _MDAC28Installed
   _MDAC2:
   StrCpy $1 "$0" 1 2
   IntCmp "$1" "8" _MDAC28Installed _MDAC28notInstalled _MDAC28Installed
 
   _MDAC28notInstalled:
   StrCpy $0 "0"
   Goto +3
   _MDAC28Installed:
   StrCpy $0 "1"
   ; done
   pop $1
   exch $0
!macroend

I test for IsMDAC28Installed by defining a custom function overriding GUI Init, and set the section selection accordingly. Hopefully this was of use to you. Cheers!
