Is it possible to change text values at runtime?

Kingsley,

Yes, no problem. For example:

Set Variable %UPDATEINSTALL% to "1"
If %UPDATEINSTALL% Equals "1" Then
Set Variable %WELCOMETEXT% to "#DLG_WELCOME_TEXT_1#"
Else
Set Variable %WELCOMETEXT% to "#DLG_WELCOME_TEXT_2#"
End

Does this help?

Not quite - I'm not getting it. The text I want to change is the
DLG_READTTOINSTALL_SUBHEADING. Under variable conditions, I want to display
different text there. This does not appear to do that.

Kingsley,

Very easy! Create a new variable, for example:

Set Variable %READTTOINSTALL_SUBHEADING% to
"#DLG_READTTOINSTALL_SUBHEADING#"

Then add the above variable to the Sub-Heading field in the "Ready to
Install" dialog (see screenshot).

You can now do whatever you want at runtime.

Set Variable %UPDATEINSTALL% to "1"
If %UPDATEINSTALL% Equals "1" Then
Set Variable %READTTOINSTALL_SUBHEADING% to "Test 1"
Else
Set Variable %READTTOINSTALL_SUBHEADING% to "#DLG_MYNEWSTRINGRESOURCE_1#"
End
