great job!
Here are a few comments regarding the setup:
* the compile log files generated by the setup have a strange line break:
they don't show up correctly with notepad but are ok with wordpad.
* maybe you could add an option to create a programm group during setup
containing the shortcuts to IB_SQL, IB_FTS and IB_RPL and a subfolder
"Documentation" (or "Resources")
* the Documentation folder could contain
* shortcuts to the help files
* links to the website: main website, tech-sheets, online-faq
* maybe a shortcut to the folder containing the sample apps
(I think this would give new users a better starting point than
just saying "setup is complete".)
* let the setup ask if the help files should be downloaded and installed
(would help me a lot because I haven't figured out yet how to install the
IB_Objects_4_5.HLP file so that pressing F1 works as it used to with older
versions of delphi.)
