I am using InstallSheild Developer 8, Basic MSI and
I am trying to install MSDE after my App has been successfully installed.

This is how I am trying to accomplish the task :

In the User Interface -> Dialogs -> SetupCompleteSuccess ->
Behavior -> OK (PushButton)

On the click of the Push Button I am trying to invoke the following events :

1. EndDialog Exit 1
2. DoAction CustomAction to install MSDE 1

My App is getting installed and I am getting the message saying MyApp has been successfully installed, but I am unable to invoke CustomAction. Is this bcoz I am trying to invoke the custom action after calling EndDialog ?

I tried adding my CustomAction after InstallFinalize in the execute sequence and when I did that, it trys to install MSDE but as installation of the App has not been completed it complains saying "another application is already been running".

I would really appreciate any thoughts on this.

Thank you !!!

More then likely it is because of your order. Simply run teh custom action before you call EndDialog. Just right click on the CustomAction line of the push button, and select move up.
