Thanks again, Rob. To mitigate it, we are thinking about displaying the launch condition message one after another. But I don't think it can be done using launch condition message box since first launch condition will just terminate the install. But are there other message box type element in WIX I can call at the launch time to display the message one after another and use launch condition without message box to terminate the install?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] display pre-req messages Hmm, good question. Never had a message that stressed it. Wouldn't surprise me if the Windows Installer is just calling ::MessageBox(). -----Original Message----- From: Bo Cordell [mailto:bcord...@microsoft.com] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2009 13:35 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] display pre-req messages Thanks Rob. Now I have it working. But when I set the condition message, the message box is too small to display the whole text. Is the launch condition message box fixed size? Doesn't it adjust to the content length?

Without a custom action, what is the best way to do it? I thought I can set each condition (which is combination of Boolean operations) to a property and then enumerate the 3 property values and display the message, but I couldn't figure out how to set a condition value (which is Boolean) to a property. Is there a way to do it in Wix? Thanks.
