Can we change the error message box?
During installation, in some where, if some mistakens happied, installer will popup a dialog and show message like "Error XXXX. The volume D:\ is unavaliable....."
I knew this is handled by Windows installer itself. But are there some ways that we can catch the mistakens, and popup our own error message.
BTW: I used InstallShield 2008 and my project is a msi basic project.
Thanks!

In some cases, you can modify the specific error messages in the Error table, which is exposed in the Direct Editor view.
