License Ageement

[NewsArchive]

I am trying to add a license agreement to an install. Everything looks good
except the license agreeement does not display. I have the following in the
DLG_LICENSE_AGREEMENT

File://C:\XrefAgUser\AgCrossUSERLICENSE.rtf

so this is compiled in resouce. The Core Resource box is also checked.
There are combinations I have tried where
the license is displayed but there is no "I Accept" choice displayed.

Is there an example available that shows how to set up this option?

Well, it may work for you. <bg> I made mine look exactly like yours except
for the name and loaction of the rtf file. When running the install, it now
aborts as soon as it gets to the license agreement. Does it matter that my
rtf file in in the same directory as the rest of the install data such as
dll's and tps files?

It shouldn't. Using it as a "Support File" it gets copied into the
users temp folder and then reference it with local://%TMPDIR%\<<file>>
which reads the copy on the users "local" machine. The "Support File"
dialog has the full path to my copy of the RTF and loads it into the
users temp folder. Make sure you have at least the top two options
checked on the "Advanced" tab for the agreement dialog.

This is how my current 3rd party installs are written.

I have no idea if this makes any difference but my RTF is written
using Wordpad, not Word. The reason is that the files aren't clogged
with all the crud Word stuffs into RTF!<g>

Lee,

The wierd thing is that I have gotten the license agreement to display but
the "I accept" choice was missing, even tho I had selected it.

Any chance you're using the Readme instead of the License Agreement?

Lee,

Got it figured out. I unchecked the box for "Read license agreement from
absoolute path and it worked. Thanks for all your help.
