Reboot AFTER installation complete

Hi

I would like to reboot the machine after the install completes. How can I do this?
I need to prompt the user with something like
"To complete the install process, you must restart your machine. Would you like to install now?" With Yes and a No button. User must select either.
Any one know how to do this?

Perhaps look into the values of the REBOOT property, or look into using the ScheduleReboot action?

Thanks, I'll try Schedule Reboot. When does this action appear? I have set it after Install Finalize..

In the Custom Action Sequences I have set the ScheduleReboot custom action under the following areas (Yes means I have it there, no means I have no action there)
Installation - User Interface - No
- Execute - Yes


Advertisement - User Interface - No
- Execute - Yes


Administration - User Interface - No
- Execute - Yes
I have not built my project yet. Does this look OK? Will my system reboot after the installation completes?
