How can I do this?
On an Internal Dialog Screen when text is entered in a Text Box, I would like the same text to display in a Label, character for character. Is this possible?
Thanks
Thanks

What kind of project? InstallScript dialogs shouldn't be that difficult---see the SdRegisterUser source for an example of watching changes to an edit field.
Basic MSI, on the other hand, would be difficult. The Windows Installer engine doesn't report edit-field-changed messages, so some sort of external trickery would be required.

It is a Basic MSI. And I kinda thought that it would be almost impossible but I had to ask anyway.
What I was trying to do is have the user enter a path in a text box, while displaying in another what the user was typing and what I had to append to the text (path). I've opted to supply a Verify button to check the user entry.
Thanks very much for the reply
