Hi,

I'm using installscript multi-instance project. How do I get the list of previous installations in the installscript? I can see these directories listed in the first dialog prompting for a fresh installation or a maintenance by selecting the previous installation. I could not figure out how to access this list of previous installations , in my install script.

Also which is this dialog that comes at the very beginning of the setup prompting for a fresh installation or a maintenance setup ? I could not find this dialog in the 'user interface' section in the Install shield X, so that I can customize this dialog.
Please tell me if I can avoid this dialog in the beginning and get the previous installation directory list through the installscript.
