is there a way to modify dialog functionality?

I have the SdWelcome dialog modified from installshield version 11. I had added a button to it that when clicked does a check for adobe reader and if it finds it, will pop up our installguide. If it doesn't find it, it would let the user know where to get reader from.

I've upgraded this project to installshield 2010 and this dialog box is no longer able to be imported. I have included ISRTWindows.h but it's no longer using the dialog that I included. (the button is there but it does nothing now)

I haven't been able to find a SdWelcome dialog rul file in 2010
sdwelcomedlg.rul in order to modify it.

I've tried placing the old one in C:\Program Files\InstallShield\2010\Script\Isrt\src\mods\sdwelcomedlg.rul and including it (with the modified path), but no dice.

is this .rul file incompatible with installshield 2010?

found this in another post as my answer.

"For existing dialogs, you can use the event dropdown in the InstallScript view (Dialog Source) to add the code for an existing InstallScript dialog. The code can then be modified as needed to support new controls or change the behavior of the dialog."

Thanks Josh technical person!
