Ok, one more, and I am done for the day.

I want to display the Summary.txt file at the end of my command line SQL
install, to show if there were any errors, and the status of everything,
etc, etc...

So, what is the best way to do this?

I tried to add a second License Agreement Dialog box right above Finish, but
I don't need the "Accept/Reject" buttons.
Is there any way to do a Message box, and give it a path to a TXT file?

Any better way than what I have tried?

Thanks,
--Glenn.

Glenn,

> So, what is the best way to do this?

Why not just RUN the file at the end and let the users default program
display it?

Wow... so, you are saying I was over complicating for something? ;)

I am a firm believer in simplification... at least for my efforts!<g>

To further extend Lee's response, use ShellExecuteA to display the text.

Russ,

SB's "Run Program" with "Use ShellExecuteEx" works well for TXT or RTF
files. "A", no... "Ex", yes!<g>
