Hi,

I am new to this InstallShield program and script. Running with the latest version Installshield 2009 professional.
What I want to do is read the information in a license file and depending on what is activated I will show different dialogs.

What I need to know is how to run a function in install script before anything else is started? That is before the Welcome dialog.

Thank you.

When you specify the sequence position for your custom action, make sure it's before InstallWelcom in the Install UI Sequence. Depending on how you do it you should even place it before CostFinalize (suggestion: before CostInitialize) because ostFinalize evaluates the feature conditions.
