Thanks a lot Mike, I understand that I need to run CostFinalize again, but 
wanted to know if there is a way to schedule it between 2 UI dialogs. 
As I explained earlier, one of the dialogs takes user input, based on the which 
I set the property according to which the feature conditions are evaluated. 
Desired behavior is  - on clicking next CostFinalize should kick in and right 
features are shown in the feature selection dialog.

Regards,
Deepika

FeatureDlgconditionally?


A couple of additional notes as I've attempted to do this in the past.

1. Setting a feature's level to 0 will disable it so it will not displaly on 
the feature selection control.  This disables the feature permanently - you 
will never be able to install that feature without uninstalling/reinstalling 
(i.e. you wouldn't be able to add the feature through a maintenance/modify 
session).  From the description you gave, it sounds like this will not impact 
your scenario but it is something to be aware of.

2. If you are setting the feature level to 0 and it's still showing up on the 
feature selection dialog you may need to run CostFinalize again, this processes 
the Condition table to change the feature levels.
