Yes!

ExecShell, Exec or ExecWait...the commandline is /q, i think.

problem solved...........
Create .bat file with following lines Place .net framework in same directory.
Just execute bat file in silent using

ExecCmd::exec "path of .bat file"

;Code tobe added to .bat file

@ECHO Installing DotNet Framework
start /wait dotnetfx.exe /q:a /c:"install.exe /q"

Hi I found a way to do this but soon discovered that it was a bad idea, i even included a dialog that said "Please wait while the .NET framework is installed.." and customers where trying to close the program (and making it crash) because they were sick of waiting, now i just lauch the .NET installer...
