how to execute all the script files in a basic MSI project
Hii
I am working on a MSI project.I have created 3 script files in this project.
1.Setup.rul files which defines a userdefined function EzbatchAddString to edit Autoexec.bat file
2.script1.rul which contains same user-defined function EzbatchAddString to edit Autoexec.NT
3.Third script defines code for the custom dialog.
When i creates an installer file and i execute it,i find that only setup.rul file is being executed....rest two other files remains unexecuted.
what should i do to call other two files or incorporate them in my setup process...
thanks

You can use #include "script2.rul" inside setup.rul to import the contents of another script file.
As an aside, though, if you need to modify environment variables, you might look into the Environment Variable Changes view.
You might also look into creating a custom MSI dialog box instead of a script dialog box for a Basic MSI project.

Sir there is one more question.
Suppose if i have two .exe files say desktop1.exe and desktop2.exe and i want to put them in startup and also want them to exeute it definite order
(say desktop.exe->desktop2.exe).Is there anyway which puts both of my exe files into startup automatically and then xecutes them
thanks

I don't think there's a built-in way to run startup commands in a particular order; perhaps create a batch file that launches the executables in order, and set the batch file as the startup script?
