Open an Installshield cab file

Opening Installshield Cab Files / Extract Installshield cab file
Recently I needed to open an Installshield cab file to extract some SQL Server scripts from a failed vendor installation. I was surprised to find that I was not able to do so. Installshield does not use the same type of cab file that Microsoft does.
I found a command line utility to view and extract the cab files. I also found an excellent shareware program, called ZipScan from foobar software. (if your allowed to use these at your company than great !).
In order to extract an installshield cab file I've put this together, you need two files (all listed at the end)
i6comp020.zip and i6comp103b.zip.
1. Extract i6comp020.zip and put just the .exe in the folder with the cab file resides.
2. Extract i6comp103b.zip and put only the zd51145.dll in the same folder as well.
3. To extract the cab file open a command window and execute:
i6comp e file_to_extract.txt some_cab_file.cab
You can also put the file back in the cab file with the same utility
i6comp r file_to_put_back.txt some_cab_file.cab

Win32 (ISCabVu.exe) lets you select an
InstallShield cabinet file and view its

those items. It also lets you extract
files from the cabinet file. CAB file
editor (iscab.exe) lets you modify cabinet
files. These two programs are extracted
from InstallShield 6.21 package and
"improved" by me so you don't have to know
media password and component passwords.
