I need to create a custom action (or any other way that would work) to check to see if a server exists based on a server name entered on a dialog box. Can anyone help me to accomplish this? I'm not very familiar with custom actions in Installshield. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I guess that depends on which type of server and where. Fr a web server you could trying sending a ping. For a SQL server you could try to establish a connection. etc...
