Registry entries, Licence Page in VS 2003 Setup ProjectI have created a windows application in .NET. For this application I have created a Setup Project using Visual Studio .NET 2003. But I want to do some customisation to this basic setup program as follow: 1. My program requires to enter 1 entry in registry during Setup and deleting that entry during uninstall. Can I do this in VS 2003 Setup program? 2. I want to add a page with textbox in it showing the licence terms. How can I do this here? 3. In the above licence page, I want to have an option of "I agree", "I don't agree" option too. Is it possible for me to achieve the above in VS 2003 Setup program? Thanks in advance JM JM wrote:

When you add the registry entry, you can specify in the properties that is should be removed when uninstall takes place. > 2. I want to add a page with textbox in it showing the licence terms. Open the user interface options in the solution explorer (via the> How can I do this here? buttons at the top) and right-click below start and add a new dialog. Select the license dialog which allows you to select a textfile or rtf from the files in the install project to view at install time. > 3. In the above licence page, I want to have an option of "I agree", that's standard. > "I don't agree" option too. > Is it possible for me to achieve the above in VS 2003 Setup program? Yes. Just try some things out. It's actually pretty straight forward.From your questions I have the feeling you didn't try some of the options out. Just experiment, you can always remove the things you don't like :) FB -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lead developer of LLBLGen Pro, the productive O/R mapper for .NET LLBLGen Pro website: http://www.llblgen.com My .NET blog: http://weblogs.asp.net/fbouma Microsoft MVP (C#) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the prompt reply Frans.

by you. No I havn't tried the details, just created the basic setup. Thanks JM Frans Bouma [C# MVP] wrote: Show quote > JM wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I have created a windows application in .NET.
