Hi, I need to show some paths to the user at the end of the installation. Since I don't know the length of these paths, I figured it's best to use ScrollableText. So I have:
<Control Id="VC71Paths" Type="ScrollableText" X="135" Y="100" Width="220"
Height="40" Sunken="yes" TabSkip="yes"
Text="{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0
Arial;}}\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs20 [BASEDIR]}">
</Control>
Where BASEDIR is an Id of a directory. This does not work: I get unexpanded
[BASEDIR] shown in the control. I've also tried to use Text element instead
of an attribute with the same result. This approach work fine for the normal
Text control. Any ideas on how to make this work will be much appreciated.
thanks,
-boris
