All,

In Developer Help it says

"When you first specify a radio button group area in a dialog, InstallShield
Developer prompts you for the name of a single property that will identify
all of the buttons that will be displayed in this radio button group. The
name you enter is used as the value for Property below, which will later
contain the selected value from the list of radio buttons contained in this
radio button group"\

However, when I add a radio group to my custom dialog i get no prompt as to
the property name and I can't edit it in the ide as it is not listed.

So how do I do it?

Thanks in advance,

Scott Williams

Hi Scott,

This text is only valid if you have a basic MSI project type. If you are
using a standard project, you'll have to author your script to handle the
radio buttons and group. You'll use the CtrlGetState and CtrlSetState
functions to do this.
