The SetupWizard directly supports only self-registering OLE servers. The setup toolkit doesn't directly support a server that requires a REG file. A workaround is use the Add Files button to add an REG file. The setup toolkit will register those keys on the user's machine. This is a partial solution. You can only use relative paths, so the server directory must be on the PATH. Also, the setup toolkit doesn't know how to uninstall these changes made by a REG file.
