Thanks Rob, but I'm not sure I understand. How would I do that when ExitDialog is a built-in control without modifying the WiX source and recompiling WiX?
I agree it's not a nice solution but I'm unable to override the ExitDialg with my own custom one which is what percipitated this email due to the ICE82 error I kept getting. I was attempting to do what is suggested in the tutorial here: http://wix.tramontana.co.hu/tutorial/user-interface-revisited/well-done That's really what I'd prefer.

There isn't really a nice way to do this, since you can't give a checkbox control a transparent background. The only way to achieve this appearance is to resize the control to the size of just the checkbox (cutting off any text) and use a text control with a transparent background to show the associated text instead. This looks right but doesn't play well with screen readers, and you have to click the checkbox directly. Clicking the text next to it will do nothing.
