I'll try a custom action now thanks. Using Integer="Yes" still does
allow you to add alpha characters into the text field. Then clicking
elsewhere must try to save the variable, making it crash.

You can ensure that it is an integer by using a custom action. I've
never set @Integer='Yes', but that should not allow them to enter alpha
characters in the edit control, and they should only be able to enter
them in there by doing a copy paste... Are you saying that the
installer crashes when they put alpha characters in the edit box?

Thanks Levi. Is it even possible then to ensure that one of the
variables I wish the user to enter is of type integer?
<Control Id="PortEdit" Type="Edit" X ="30" Y= "145" Width=" 150"
Height="20 " Property="MY_PORT" Text="{5}" Integer="yes" />
I would have though something like the above, however if you
enter an alphanumberic value in the text field and click elsewhere the
installer will crash with error code 2892, and can only be closed from
task manager ( wix 3.0.2211 ) :|

On second thought, I'm not sure if you can get it to
automatically refresh to enable the "Next" button. In the thread that I
sent you, when I clicked the Next button was when I was updating items
on my dialog. I believe in your case you want "Next" to be enabled
whenever text has been entered. I don't think that you can do this
without an external UI handler. To quote Bob Arson:
"Because MSI's UI support doesn't expose all User32
functionality. It's
designed to support a typical setup wizard; more advanced
functionality
is the realm of external UI handlers."
Maybe that would be more of what you're looking for.

I'm not sure if it will "solve" your problem, but it
might give you some ideas to try to achieve what you're trying to do?

One of my dialog screens requires the user to

<
Control Id=" V2 Edit" Type="Edit " X="30"
Y="150" Width ="150" Height= "20" Property=" VARIABLE_TWO" Text=" {32} "
/>
The next button should only be enabled if both
variables contain data. This code appears to work but upon typing in the
second value, it requires me to click elsewhere in order for the dialog
to refresh and the next button to become enabled. Is there any way I can
get it to update automatically?
Thanks,
Patrick
