Re: [WiX-users] PIDTemplate w/ MaskedEdit
No the Visual Basic MaskedEdit may support uppercase 'A', but the WiX MaskedEdit does not. I tried it anyways I set the MaskedEdit Text control to: A-A-A-A and when I ran the install the entry field was set to A-A-A-A. So definitely did not work... Since we would like to support Upper case and numbers I tried: ^-^-^-^ And it again allowed for any characters to be entered and when finished it did not convert any letters to upper case. So MaskedEdit does not look good for mixed PID entries... without having to go outside of the box and creating custom action that will convert lower case to upper case and validate that only letters and numbers are entered...

Re: [WiX-users] PIDTemplate w/ MaskedEdit
Okay now I am experiencing another issue with this. Since I have set my Text to # so that I can accept values from 1 to 9 it is actually back filling my property with spaces if I enter less than 5 numbers. So if I enter '34' the property would end up being '34 ', meaning the string now has 3 spaces behind the 34. So is there any way to prevent this or will I have to then create a custom action dll just to strip off the extra spaces that it is placing on the end of my entry? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/PIDTemplate-w-MaskedEdit-tp4815087p7595777.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft ___ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users

Re: [WiX-users] PIDTemplate w/ MaskedEdit
I was actually using a PORT_NUMBER 0 conditions before I switched to MaskedEdit and therefore once I switched I did not remove that condition as the mask # does not accept negative numbers and therefore I did not need that condition.

Re: [WiX-users] PIDTemplate w/ MaskedEdit
Thanks John, but yes I have seen that article and it still does not explain how you can enter 1 to 5 numbers in the field. If I change enter 1, 11, 111, the next but will fail to do anything, but if I enter 1 then the install will proceed as expected. So it seems that if the text field has 5 - # then you have to enter 5 numbers. So is there a way to format it so that you can enter any amount of numbers only and that it would only fail if it is empty? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/PIDTemplate-w-MaskedEdit-tp4815087p7595733.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft ___ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
Re: [WiX-users] PIDTemplate w/ MaskedEdit
As the last comment in the article suggests, you'll probably need a custom action to pre-process the data and decide if it's any good.
