While using Build App installer, how does one include drivers for hardware

Hi!
 
I would like that the installer of my application, created by the Application builder of NI, LabVIEW 8.2 will install as well a driver that does not belong to NI. This driver is used by .dll called by my application.
 
Even if the .dll is included in the installer. If the drivers for the .dll are not installed already before myApplicationInstaller is. This will not run in the PC where the drivers of that .dll are not installed.
 
Is there any way around this?
 
Thank you,
Best regards,
Maria Jose

Maria Jose,

Please see the topic Additional Installers Page in the LabVIEW Help.  To run an additional 3rd party installer at the end of the installation for your applications, include the files in your LabVIEW Project, add them as source files in the Installer Build Specification for your project, and select it as the executable to run after installation in the Advanced category of the Installer Build Specifications dialog box. 

If you have multiple installers create a batch file and call the batch file at the end of installation instead.
