I am looking for any information on how to use an ActiveX control during my installation.  I am using the InstallShield for Windows Installer v2.3.  I need to:
1.  Install and register the ActiveX control if it is not already installed.
2.  Send an integer value to the ActiveX control.
3.  Check the return value of the ActiveX control, also an integer.
4.  Perform conditional installation based on the return value.

Can anybody give me some help?

Hi
You can write C code to execute ActiveX after InstallFile and check return value, set property and use this property as condition. Use this code in Custom Action
