Combobox Database Selection
Hello,
I am new to using Installshield and am trying to populate a dropdown combobox with the available Database Servers (as per screen grab).
I see there is an installscript called SQLServerSelectDlg.rul that seems to do what I want, but I am unsure how this connects to the combobox to get the list of servers.
Is this something straightforward to do?
Any help appreciated.
Regards,
Andy Pepper

You can follow SQLServerSelectDlg.rul if you are using an InstallScript dialog (InstallScript or InstallScript MSI project). In case of a Windows Installer dialog (Basic MSI project), see Q103295: CODE: Dynamically Add and Remove Values from a Combo Box at Run Time in Flexera Software Knowledge Base.
