Interesting, the docs for Control do say that you can use the <Text> element underneath <Control> when CDATA is required.
In your case, since you don't need to wrap your text in CDATA, you can just use the Text attribute instead: <Control ... Text="[CreateVantageAdminDomainIdentityTextLabel]"> ... </Control> Neil -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Amy Rosewater Sent: June-17-08 8:30 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] Question about <Control> element I added the following xml to my .wxs file: <Control Id="DomainIdentityLabel" Type="Text" X="32" Y="151" Width="79" Height="10"> <Condition Action="hide"><![CDATA[IISUSEWINDOWSAUTHENTICATION<>"checked"]]></Condit ion> <Condition Action="show"><![CDATA[IISUSEWINDOWSAUTHENTICATION="checked"]]></Conditi on> <Text>[CreateVantageAdminDomainIdentityLabelText]</Text> </Control> ...and received the following error: Schema validation failed with the following error: The element 'Control' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi' has invalid child element 'Text' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi'. List of possible elements expected: 'Condition Publish Subscribe'. in iVantageUI.wxs If I move the Text node above the condition node like so: <Control Id="DomainIdentityLabel" Type="Text" X="32" Y="151" Width="79" Height="10"> <Text>[CreateVantageAdminDomainIdentityLabelText]</Text> <Condition Action="hide"><![CDATA[IISUSEWINDOWSAUTHENTICATION<>"checked"]]></Condit ion> <Condition Action="show"><![CDATA[IISUSEWINDOWSAUTHENTICATION="checked"]]></Conditi on> </Control> ...I do not get the error. Any particular reason why this might be?
