How to use ifx functions in Suite installation
I need to add some installscript to my SUITE project but even after including ifx.h in the setup file I still can't use functions (things like MessageBox, etc.)? How can I use these? I always just get the ' : no definition found for function' error.

MessageBox, Sprintf and SprintfBox are not allowed via installscript code while in a Suite.
If you need a popup in a Suite then what i have done is set a property via installscript, then create a secondary dialog that will trigger based on that property. Then you can have the secondary window say/do anything you'd like,.

Agree with PlinyElder. If you just need for debugging purposes you can use SuiteLogInfo. Then log your suite install and examine the log.
