Thanks for this Blair, Made it much easier to replace the standard dialog.
I am still having an issue though I'm afraid. Basically I'm using a localised string to populate the scrollable text. However the text doesn't appear when running the msi. Here is the control snippet: <Control Id="TextArea" Type="ScrollableText" X="5" Y="50" Width="360" Height="130" Sunken="yes" TabSkip="no"> <Text>!(loc.License_Agreement)</Text> </Control> I found an example in the tutorial, so I applied the following: <Control Id="TextArea" Type="ScrollableText" X="5" Y="50" Width="360" Height="130" Sunken="yes" TabSkip="no"> <Text>{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deftab720 {\fonttbl{\f0\froman\fprq2 Times New Roman;}} {\colortbl\red0\green0\blue0;} \deflang1033\horzdoc{\*\fchars }{\*\lchars } \pard\plain\f0\fs20 !(loc.License_Agreement)\par }</Text> </Control> This makes the text appear when running the msi, but all the text is squashed together, and loses line breaks enter in the localisation file. I understand the font application from the code above, but not sure what the rest is doing... If anyone can shed some light on this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again!
