Hello

I have to prepare file with answers for silent upgrade.

The problem is that sometime I need to reboot computer after upgrade finished and sometimes not. I'm deciding about it with InstallScript that check previous and new versions of drivers that we're supplying. According to that I'm finishing installation with SdFinishReboot() or SdFinish() dialogs.

There are three asnwers in file and sometimes last answer has to be:
Dlg2={FF264A6D-04A6-446F-AC8D-A2CA796626B1}-SdFinishReboot-0
and sometimes:
Dlg2={FF264A6D-04A6-446F-AC8D-A2CA796626B1}-SdFinish-0

How can I overcome this limitation ?
InstallShield Developer 8, SP2

Thanks

Don't show a dialog in silent or record mode:

// if reboot required

if ( (MODE=SILENTMODE) || (MODE=RECORDMODE) ) then
System(SYS_BOOTMACHINE);
else
SdFinishReboot(...);
endif;

Can you also edit the answer file so that:
Dlg2={FF264A6D-04A6-446F-AC8D-A2CA796626B1}-SdFinishReboot-0
Dlg3={FF264A6D-04A6-446F-AC8D-A2CA796626B1}-SdFinish-0

ie: to include both.
or is this a tempermental fix?
