It always seems that whenever I have an InstallShield problem, 5 or 6 other people have had the same problem, but no one has posted a solution.
Here's my (professional) problem: I have a install that consists of a handful of custom dialogs. If the user moves one of the dialog boxes, then clicks next, the following dialog will jump back to the initial position.
Is there any way that I can capture the window position, save it, and set each dialog's position based on that? I know that PlaceWindow() won't work with custom dialogs. That leaves MoveWindow(), but I can't get that to work either.
Any suggestions?

Going once... twice... ?
I found this post about using _WinSubGetWindowRect ( wWinHnd, nOX, nOY, nSX, nSY ); This function is declared in winsub.rul, but it looks like it was depreciated, since my version of winsub.rul doesn't contain anything. I found a version online that had function declarations, but I'm afraid that I'm wasting time now... Anyone? PLEASE?
