believe the thread includes the refresh issue as well.

I assume that the dialog would contain a listbox and a custom action of your
writing would populate it.

There have been discussions on this list regarding using custom actions to
populate listboxes, as well as dialog refresh issues.

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.

Thanks,
Sankha

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.
