Hi Mikko, Two options here: - Use Orca tool. Open your MSI, go to "Tools/Dialog Preview...". Choose whatever dialog you want to see. - Add to your install command EXECUTEMODE=None, ie: msiexec /I mymsi.msi EXECUTEMODE=None

One working solution is to use LaunchCondition like this: <Product> <Property Id="Aborter" Value="foo"/> <Condition Message="Nothing was installed.">NOT Aborter</Condition> </Product> This just gives me error dialog saying 'Nothing was installed.' (or whatever I like) in the end of "installation" but I'd like to get rid of that. Any ideas? (The point behind this stupidity is to show the very same simple dialog every time MSI is run but never actually install anything.) -- Mikko Järvinen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
