Answer to problem 1: I already posted a link to yesterday on this very thread (in fact I can see it on my screen as I type this further down the thread). Between Neil S's blog & the WiX UI pages in the WiX manual you should have all you need to make the changes required.
ExitDialog is called by Windows Installer. Just author one in the InstallUISequence with sequence -1 & it'll be called at the end of the installation if it was successful (if not it'll call whatever has sequence -3, -2 is used for a user cancel event). You can do whatever you like from there (NewDialogs, SpawnDialog etc). I still don't get why you need a second License Agreement displayed though. Also at that point the user doesn't need to accept your License Agreement. Your software is already installed on their machine & you can't initiate a rollback to remove it since the InstallExecuteSequence has finished. At best you could try some method of forcing an uninstall if the user doesn't accept the terms.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Customizing WixUI_FeatureTree Two problems with that: - the ExitDialog is part of the UI_FeatureTree set, so I can't change it from my project alone. I'll have to either modify the UI_FeatureTree set and rebuild WiX, or copy the whole set into my project and modify the copy - after looking at the source for ExitDialog I'm still not sure how it is invoked, or how to make it not run after the "progress" stage ---- Blair <os...@live.com> wrote: > You set your ReadmeDlg the way that ExitDialog is currently invoked, > then have ReadmeDlg's Next button go to ExitDialog.
