Thanks Chad, further information

1) I found some information in the help but I can't locate the names of 
all the dialogs.  It mentions about customizing the dialogs but the 
information is not thorough.  Can someone point me to where I can get 
more information?  Also, is there any way to manipulate the fonts used 
in the dialogs to customize their look further?

2) The license screen shows the licensing agreement in a box that can be 
scrolled up and down to show the complete text.  The inbuilt UI loads 
the text in from a file in RTF format.  I didnt see a control in the 
controls section that does this.

3) Perfect.

1st thoughts:

1) Typically look at the Publish elements in the UI sequence and see 
what each control does.

2) Not sure what you're trying to do exactly

3) Write a CA, then tie it to the "Finish" control.  Something similar 
to this...

<Publish Dialog="ExitDialog" Control="Finish" Event="DoAction" Value="
LaunchSAwithLOCALDB" />
And in the Value attr, that would be your CA Id.
