I'm using InstallShield 6.3.
Can someone tell me how to change the maint mode screen? I do not want to ask user to "repair" "blah", "remove" I just want to prompt the user to uninstall..
Thanks in advance!

I also do not have a maintenace mode for my installation (I use patches to update files).  Anyway, I simply removed the dialog box that the InstallShield wizard put in OnMaintUIBefore() and show a box instead saying that the installer is currently uninstalling the product.  This works just fine for what I need; however, you may want to inform the user before this happens and give them an out.  In that case you may want to add an user defined Dialog Box.  You can find out how to do that in InstallShield's HELP
