Dialog Object Properties
Is it possible for a control on a cutom dialog to set properties of another control on the same dialog?
For example, perhaps a pushbutton that could change the width of a text box.
I just dont know how to reference the property (in vb it would be easy, just set textbox.width). Is there such a creature in installscript?
thanks
Larry

InstallScript dialog boxes are resource-based and don't have objects associated with them; in general, you'll need to call Windows API functions (EnableWindow, ShowWindow, SendMessage, and so on) to manipulate them at run time.
