Hi,
I want to know is there any possible way to disable the cancel button in the splash screen.

I believe you're referring to the initial Cancel button when InstallShield is preparing the setup wizard, and I'm not aware of a way to disable that short of maybe hacking the core InstallShield files.
May I ask though why you feel the need to disable it? It only appears momentarily.

mageshkumar_ap:
I had the same need. In my case, when clients load their update CD's, I need to verify that a particular file had the R/O attribute disabled (this is a file that my installation does not otherwise touch, but the file attribute must be set correctly). To do this, I wrote a quick IS program that determines the location of the file in question, then sets then disables the R/O attribute (if needed). The problem was that some clients didn't know what was happening, so theyts were hitting the cancel button, which lead to problems down the road.
What I did was to create a silent installation, then used PackageForTheWeb4 to create a self-contained .EXE. When creating the EXE, I entered -s in the Command Line: field and it works perfectly.
NOTE: I made several attempts to do the same with the Self-Exacting Package in the IS media wizard, but this approach just would not work.
