I need to set the ADDLOCAL property to the list of features I want installed via VBSCript. Can I do it like this:

Session.Property("ADDLOCAL") = "Feature1,Feature2,Feature3" ?

Also, is there any special place this needs to be sequenced?

I'm in a bind, so any quick help is Greatly Appreciated!!!!

If my install is not made silent (by bypassing some of the User Interface via my VBScript), I have a bunch of AddLocals set when the Install Now button is clicked on the ReadytoInstall dialog. The various features are installed based on various conditions.

What I would really like to do is automate this part of the install via the VBScript while, hopefully, preserving the various feature install conditions.

If this can't be accomplished, is there any way of setting a feature install state outside of the ADDLOCAL property?

As always, any help is GREATLY Appreciated!!!!!!

Or can I tell the installer to install a Feature via an InstallScript Custom Action?

setting the ADDLOCAL property should work, before costing.

Would I first have to add ADDLOCAL to the property manager? Either way I guess I could then run a set property Custom Action to set it to the string of Features delimited by ','.

Can I do this in the User Interface sequence, I wonder?

Using ADDLOCAL seemed to work for me!

I put the action in the Execute Sequence due to it being a silent install.

THANKS FOR THE HELP!!!!!!
