If call MessageBox passing in NULL as the HWND, it will display with no
owner window.

Thanks Albert,
I'm still having some trouble I'm hoping you could please help me with.
I've built the dll and added these lines to my WiX source as in the example
in the C++ code you provided.
<Property Id="D4WSQLSERVER">(local)</Property>
<Property Id="D4WLOCALDATABASEONLY">0</Property>
<CustomAction Id="D4WFillSQLServersListbox" BinaryKey="SQLMsiCA"
DllEntry="D4WFillSQLServersListbox" />
<Binary Id="SQLMsiCA"
SourceFile="CustomActions\SQLMsiCA\Release\SQLMsiCA.dll" />
<InstallUISequence>
<Custom Action="D4WFillSQLServersListbox"
After="CostFinalize">D4WSQLSERVER = "(local)"</Custom>
</InstallUISequence>
<Control Id="D4WFillSQLServersListbox" Type="ListBox" X="18" Y="106"
Width="278" Height="80" Property="D4WSQLSERVER" Sorted="yes" />
However, when I run the installer I get an error immediately as shown
below:
Action 16:52:03: D4WFillSQLServersListbox.
Action start 16:52:03: D4WFillSQLServersListbox.

I don't know how to display a MessageBox to see if it has gotten into the
function as I have seen suggested, since I don't know how to get a hWnd
handle. I have been trying all day to get it to work with no
avail. If you could point me to some tutorials or documentation regarding C++
custom
action writing or suggest
anything I'm doing wrong, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
-Matthew Rowan
