SdShowMsg not modal in Basic MSI.
I want to display modal dialog during installing database, but SdShowMsg is displaying behind parent window.
Macrovision provide "Diaglog Sampler" where SdShowMsg works fine.
But sample is InstallScript project.
Is it possible to display modal dialog in Basic MSI project using standard features ?

You can display a message box with Windows Installer using MsiProcessMessage (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370354(VS.85).aspx) and passing one of INSTALLMESSAGE_ERROR, INSTALLMESSAGE_USER, or INSTALLMESSAGE_WARNING.
