I created a windows installer installation for my vb.net application.
I want to include a tool with my installation that will run before the install begins and monitor the installation and send the log and errors to me (by email for example)
does such a tool exists please?
thanks

I don't know exactly what you mean by monitoring, but people typically do this with a program that calls the Win32 API MsiEnableLog, followed by MsiInstallProduct, after which they know where the log file is and if the install succeeded.
