Re: [WiX-users] WixShellExec not running application on exit
No it was not in the references, I normally have to search external to the WiX doc to find answers. Think it was an answer in stackoverflow which I know needs to be taken with a grain of salt ;) Thanks, John J.

I have added the statement to run my application on exit if box is check but it is throwing an error, see below. Using VS2012 and XML Toolst 3.7.1224.0 and windows 7.

Re: [WiX-users] WixShellExec not running application on exit
Sorry I don't understand. Adding a value for WIXUI_EXITDIALOGOPTIONALCHECKBOX just checks the check box by default, it does not change the problem as far as I can see. -Original Message- From: Steven Ogilvie [mailto:steven.ogil...@titus.com] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2013 15:07 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
