Thanks for the quick reply Alpesh. Will the /Instance parameter work in an InstallScript project? (The help says it's for Basic MSI and Web projects). If so, will using /Instance=default give the same result as the user selecting the Install new instance option?

I've recently upgraded from InstallShield 2008 to InstallShield 2009 and after rebuilding my InstallScript projects in the new version a dialog appears at the beginning of the setup process. The dialog's title is "Existing Installed Instances Detected" and there are two radio button options: "Install a new instance of this application" and "Maintain or update the instance of this application selected below:" with a list below that. Is there a way to turn this dialog off in 2009? I had a look at some of the projects that I hadn't yet converted and discovered that I could control the appearance of the dialog using the "Show update UI when appropriate" option (In the Project > Settings menu > Updates tab). The tab isn't in 2009 however, and according to the help it was removed because it was confusing!? I really don't want this dialog to appear because I already control installing a new instance or updating an existing one in my script. Any help with this problem would be much appreciated.
