Hi there...

my current problem: our setup installs a database
of user customizable size. The necessary disk
space shall be checked and shown in the dialog
DiskSpaceRequirement.
Because the database isn't included in the setup
as file of this size, the dialog doesn't show the size.

Any idea how to change/manipulate this?
I fiddled around with a property called
PrimaryVolumeSpaceAvailable
but it always seems to be zero ???

TIA & Cheers

You could also look at the ReserveCost table.

Thanx for your help.

The PrimaryVolumeSpaceXXXXX properties didn't
help me - don't know why. I suppose it's a timing
problem. I think when i need to use their values,
they aren't set yet.

The ReserveCost table works fine. It's not the
way i wanted it to be, but so far it's the best
compromise.

Cheers
