Dear ALL,

In Basic MSI of Installshield 11 there is no direct use of BillBoard.
However under direct editor there are following tables.
1.BControl
2.BillBoard
3.Binary

I have put the values in the column of each tables.
Now I want to know what to do next in order to make the billboard available for the end user at the background while he/she is installing the product.

Please provide me with some help in this context.


Thanks

In a Basic MSI project you can display billboards only on your progress dialog not on the backgraound window (there's isn't one). This is described in MSi Help, there's no direct support for this in InstallShield (but you should be able to do it using the dialog editor and the tables in DirectEditor)

With InstallShield 11 u can use picture box on top of dialogs to show ur BMP files.
It looks same and like that of billboard.

Still I find problem with bill board. Even after puting all required values I dont see Billboard activated on running the install setup.

Bye
