Hi, Actually I was able to add a custom dialog to the UI which looks like a form. In the dialog I got two control elements one for Label and other for field value. The controls elements are
<Control Id="LblInterval" Type="Text" X="40" Y="111" Width="51" Height="17" TabSkip="yes"> <Text>Interval:</Text> </Control> <Control Id="EditInterval" Type="Edit" X="95" Y="109" Width="150" Height="15" TabSkip="no" Property="_edtInterval"> <!--<Text>sec</Text>--> </Control> I am using XMLFile element and it is <util:XmlFile Id="EditXML" Action="setValue" ElementPath="/PureCMOnTime/Interval" File="[INSTALLLOCATION2]PureCMOnTimeSync.xml" Name="ServiceInterval" Value="[_edtInterval]"/> I got a problem, during the installation I give value to the Interval field in the custom dialog and after installation when I check the xml file it shows that ServiceInterval="" It seems that the node is found in XML but I can't hold the value that was given through the custom dialog during the installation. After research on internet I found that I need to get value from custom dialog field through custom action and then set that value to a property through another custom action. Just for your information I haven't set up Property="_edtInterval". I am not sure wether this is the correct way for it. I tried on it but I haven't succeeded so far I get the same result. I am quite new to wix can someone please reply me with custom actions for this scenario or any other alternative to custom actions. Or any other way of doing it. All I need is the values given in the custom dialog should be replace in the XML file. thanks -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail is intended only for the above addressee.
