Get ComboBox Value, Quit Wizard and Start wizard with Value
Hi I'm really new to Install Shield!
I added i new dialog (language Selection) where there is a combo box and depending on its value. I want to know a few a things:
1 - how to set default value on combo and make it equal to LANGUAGE (default value). Basically if the combo box default should always be equal to the installer current language. I want to know if that possible.
2 - how to a grab that combo value on a script. and set LANGUAGE = MY_COMBO(value). Can i do this? Set the default language depending on the combo value?
3 - is there anyway to close the setup and initialize it with new Language?
4 - if not is there anyway to hide dialog, change language and refresh it?
I really need this to work or a way i can implement it. Using scripts or not. Any function i can use? I'm really lost here.
Thank You for Your Trouble.

In case of Basic MSI project type, you would start with public properties (all caps) and play around to get/set values.
if you are in an InstallScript project then you have lot of InstallScript functions to do this.

Ok thank you very much! Been trying to get combo value to no avail :X
I know i need to use MsiGetProperty to get it and then save it somewhere.
But i just can find any guide lines on this.
On the other hand i can seem to create a customDialog on installScript with a combo box.
