Here is a code snippet in my ReplaceEula Custom Action.
This is not a part of the full working code but you may understand the logic to
change text in ScrollableText. This custom action is an immediate custom action
and sequenced before the main dialog.
I hope this helps for your needs.

Subject: [WiX-users] WcaAddTempRecord with ScrollableText
Since the Text attribute does not accept properties I was hoping to use a
Custom Action to adjust the text based on the value of a bunch of public
properties. I was looking through the Wix
Tutorial(http://www.tramontana.co.hu) and found a Custom Action that was
changing some Text of a
ListBox(http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson10.php).
Right now I'm starting simple. I was just trying to figure out how to set
the Text attribute of the ScrollableText Control with WcaAddTempRecord()
instead of a ListBox like in lesson 10. Is it possible to use
WcaAddTempRecord() to change the Text attribute? If so, then how? If not,
then are there any alternatives?
I am using Wix 2.0 and I linked the DLL I made with the WiX *.lib files and
the msi.lib file
Here is my broken code:
extern "C" UINT __stdcall FillListbox (MSIHANDLE hInstall) {
HRESULT hResult = WcaInitialize (hInstall, "testText");
if (FAILED (hResult)) return ERROR_INSTALL_FAILURE;
MSIHANDLE hTable = NULL;
MSIHANDLE hColumns = NULL;
hResult = WcaAddTempRecord (&hTable, &hColumns, L"ScrollableText", 0, 2,
L"{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0
Arial;}}
\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs20 My Text\par}");
if (hTable)
MsiCloseHandle (hTable);
if (hColumns)
MsiCloseHandle (hColumns);
return WcaFinalize (hResult);
}
and here is my Dialog from my .wxs file:
...
<UI>
<Dialog Id="WelcomeDialog" Width="370" Height="270"
Title="[ProductName]
[Setup]" NoMinimize="yes">
<Control Id="Exit" Type="PushButton"
X="236" Y="243" Width="56" Height="17"
Disabled="no"
Default="yes" Text="Exit">
<Publish Event="EndDialog" Value="Exit" >1</Publish>
</Control>
<Control Id="FilledListbox" Type="ListBox"
Sorted="yes" Property="LISTBOXVALUES"
X="10" Y="50"
Width="200" Height="130" />
<Control Id="testText" Type="ScrollableText" Text="1"
X="10" Y="10"
Sunken ="yes" Disabled="no"
Width="300" Height="200">
</Control>
</Dialog>
</UI>
...
and here is the error i recieved in the log file:
testText: Error 0x8007064f: failed to open view on database
testText: Error 0x8007064f: failed to openexecute temp view with query
SELECT * FROM `ScrollableText`
I appreciate any information you can give me on how to use the
WcaAddTempRecord. Thank you!
