Hi Blair, I just want to display the required prerequisite and the urls to download them in a UI. I don't want to automatically install them.
I just want to build a custom Dialog similar to SQL Server which will display the status. Then if users install and click on a refresh button it should again check and enable next button. Can you please provide an example or sample for how to check the status for predefined set of required softwares and display a status in a custom dialog. I appreciate your help.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Check and display Prerequisite Lists in Wix UI Dialog Normally that is what we use bootstappers for. UI in Windows Installer can be bypassed, and it runs non-elevated anyway (unless the MSI APIs were called from already elevated code) and most prerequisites people would want would probably require elevation to run, resulting in multiple prompts for elevation which is considered by most to be a bad user experience. -----Original Message----- From: Sankha Biswas (Extended Results Inc) [mailto:v-sab...@microsoft.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 28, 2009 2:20 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
