Hi John, I am using a dialog indirectly. That dialog presents the results of a CA that collects info about the windows server that the user is installing on. Based on a choice presented to the user, it then publishes a value which the browse dialog uses (INSTALLDIR). This provides the sane default choice given the windows servers existing state. How does the InstallDirDlg handle applying WIXUI_INSTALLDIR to INSTALLDIR? I am unclear on why it got overridden after initially being set correctly when the user decided to override the default. Thanks a lot! jlc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
