Hi all,

Does anyone know how to show a "Loading..." popup while a custom action is
executing during the InstallUISequence? 

I have a managed custom action that tests if the database connection string
a user has entered is valid (i.e. a "Test Connection" button). Sometimes, if
the user misspells a server name, the UI can hang for a bit while the custom
action tries to connect using the invalid connection string. It would be
nice to show them that the installer hasn't frozen, but is still trying to
connect.

I am aware of DTF's Session.Message() method, but from what I see, there is
no way to close a dialog created using this method. Any ideas?

Peter
