String missing on installation progress window

Hi,

I have an Installscript project that does not show the expected String in the installation progress window as shown in attached image. I suppose that the %P should be replaced by the Product name string.
This is happening on Repair and Uninstall process, but it's working fine on Update process.

Any one has an idea on how to fix it ?

I've got it 🙂

The event OnUpdateUIBefore does automatically include the following code:
// Added in 11.0 - Set appropriate StatusEx static text.
szMsg = SdLoadString( IDS_IFX_STATUSEX_STATICTEXT_UPDATEUI );
SdSubstituteProductInfo( szMsg );
SetStatusExStaticText( szMsg );


While both OnFirstUIBefore and OnMaintUIBefore does not. They just includes this one:
// Added in 11.0 - Set appropriate StatusEx static text.
SetStatusExStaticText( SdLoadString( IDS_IFX_STATUSEX_STATICTEXT_FIRSTUI ) );


I fixed it by replacing the code in those 2 events by the one in OnUpdateUIBefore

Any way that's strange that InstallShield does not include them automatically.
I started a new project and get this discrepancy :confused:
