is there a way of detecting whether or not the user has spawned a silent install (msi) within installscript or a custom action?

does anyone know?  all i need is to detect whether a silent install has kicked off and if it has, then i'll set a flag of some sort.  has anyone ever done this before?

there is a UILevel property that you can use to determine, or set.  it has four ( 4 ) levels to indicate none, basic, reduced, or full.

The scripts creating the Sd* dialogs contain the following code snippet:

if (MODE = SILENTMODE) then
   ...
endif;

Maybe that's what you need?
You can find those scripts in c:\program files\installshield\developer\script\isrt\src
