Hi there,

Although some people already tried to help me, I am still not able to get this 
working.

I am writing a managed Custom Action and need to be able to show a messagebox 
that for instance tells the user that a specified password does not match the 
policies. However, no matter what way I use session.Message, the best I get is 
a line in the msi.log, but the Windows Installer just does not show anything.

I understand that I have to use InstallMessage.User as a flag and - although 
this is somewhat puzzling - the Record index starts counting from 1 not from 0 
(yet the help says at index 0 theres a special format specifier and later 
passages say that you have to put the format string in the first field... did 
anyone ever think about putting some examples up there? ;-))

What I need is a working example that does simple nothing else than showing a 
messagebox to the user (UI sequence of course).

If anyone could help me out here that would be really great!!

Thanks in advance,
Chris.
