During my installation I want to display a temporary message box to the user which will disappear by itself after 5 seconds. If I call MessageBox() it waits until the user clicks OK, how can I close the window programatically without forcing (waiting for) the user to click OK ?

You could use a Custom Action that calls an executable that makes use of a timer and maybe me.close.

MSI can show messages where the user doesn't have to click OK (like the SetupInitialization dialog). They disapper automatically when the next dialog is displayed.
