Hi

Is there any way I can display some action text in the setupprogress dialog when merge modules are installing.

For example I include the MDAC MM and this takes quite a while to install, I would like to display some relevant text to inform the user to please wait etc.

As I understand it you have to assign Action Text to Custom Actions, how can I display text to MMs that do not have any custom actions apart from the InstallShield pre-defined ones?

In a merge module would there be any problems if I assigned text to the default actions once they were included in the parent installer?

I'd like to do the same thing. If you figured this out, would you mind sharing?
