Does anybody know how to show destination path in a non-editable field using SdShowDestPath?  In the other words, how to make a field non-editable and disable the browse button?  Or do I need a custom dialog for it?

Hi,

You'll need a custom dialog to accomplish this. Copy the screen from _isres.dll to _isuser.dll, and  copy the code from the .rul-script containing the code for SdShowDestPath. Make your changes in the copied code.

Success, Ide

I am trying to disable the Browse... button, I've located the code for SdShowDeskPath, however there is no IS function setting the state of a push button.  Does that mean I have to implement the disable state from the resource file?  Can I do it from the script?

Yes, you can do it from the script. Find the ID of the Browse button (i believe it's 196), and disable it using the following function.

prototype DialogFieldDisable( STRING, INT, INT);

function DialogFieldDisable( svDlg, iFieldId, iAction)
   HWND    hwndFieldName, hwndDlg;
   BOOL    bvEnableFieldName;
begin
   hwndDlg          = CmdGetHwndDlg( svDlg );
   hwndFieldName    = GetDlgItem( hwndDlg, iFieldId );

   bvEnableFieldName = ( iAction == ENABLE );
   EnableWindow( hwndFieldName, bvEnableFieldName  );
end;

Call like :
DialogFieldDisable(svDialog, ControlID, ENABLE);
or
DialogFieldDisable(svDialog, ControlID, DISABLE);
