Hi All,

I am new to this forum. I am stuck in a very big issue.
I have converted a "Installscript MSI" project to "pure InstallScript" one.

I need to store/set the username and password in a .bat file which gets deleted upon installation.(I need to start a service using this username and password).

I had done this using following code in Installscript MSI :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MsiSetProperty(ISMSI_HANDLE,"NTUSERNAME",svUserName);

MsiSetProperty(ISMSI_HANDLE,"NTPASSWORD",svPassword);
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need to replace this code since Msisetproperty does not work in Installscript.
It would be great if you could provide me with sample code to replace this msisetproperty functionality.

I tried adding ISWi.h but it gives error "can't open file".
Thanks in advance.

NTUSERNAME and NTPASSWORD are properties which in a pure InstallScript project you would replace with variables. Of course you will also need to adjust the code that uses these variables to repace the text in the bat file.
