Update text file with dialog
Hi,
I am new to InstallShield. I created a Basic MSI installer and I would like to update the text file based on the value user input in a dialog.
I have followed the steps defined in "Using Windows Installer Properties to Dynamically Modify Text Files" (http://helpnet.flexerasoftware.com/installshield19helplib/helplibrary/TextFileChanges-MSIProps.htm)
However, I am stucked at the step 4 (b) mentioned in the page. The info mentioned to look for "click the language under the dialog that should contain the User Name control". However I am not able to find this within the InstallShield program. Below is the screen capture of my Installshield program.
Can any kind soul help me to understand how can I create a dialog for user to input a string which will be used to modify a file.
Thanks.
Casey
