I wish to enable users to install the OI application automatically using some sort of controlled Install Shield.
Any suggestions ?

There are a few consultants who offer support with InstallShield and OpenInsight setups. Look at the Developer Network for a list (we happen to be one of them ).
If you want to learn it yourself then scan this website for "INSTALLSHIELD". I know that many people have posted InstallShield scripts to get you started. You really should be familiar with InstallShield before diving in.

I heard that Revelation was going to provide a white paper (or the equivalent) on using InstallShield with OI? If so, when?
If Revelation doesn't provide a paper, perhaps it would be worthwhile for an OI guru to write one on this topic and sell it to the rookies (such as myself).

Doing a fresh install is pretty much a snap, once you learn InstallShield. Having said that, I had an initial install script for OI working about 10 minutes after opening up the box. It's simply just putting files into a specified directory.
Doing an upgrade is tricky since you have to load the engine and pass in commands.
