Hi Bob,

Thanks for your reply. For usability reasons I would like to present the 
checkbox to the user on the last dialog (i.e. when we know that the install has 
completed successfully). Given that, what would be the best way to achieve what 
I'm after?

Thanks!

Mike Bednarek

Put the check box on a dialog that appears *before* the install begins; 
then it's tied to a public property that you can write to the registry 
using stock MSI functionality.
