Wait until Finished Clicked

[NewsArchive]

App has been moved up to SB5 and starting to understand this awesome
program. After installation the app is loaded but loaded before the
Finished Button is clicked to close the install file.

I know there must a wait function somewhere to wait until install program is
closed.

Hi Don,

Unless you have some special things to do when "Running" your app at
the completion of the installation, don't worry about using the script
for this. Go to the "Run" tab, click on "Add", fill in the dialog as
appropriate. If you want that professional effect of giving your user
the option to not run the app then make sure you also choose the
"Finish Dialog" tab of that dialog window, type in the appropriate
text such as "Launch XYZ after install completes?", and place a check
in the "Run program once the installation exits" checkbox. This
results in a checkbox on the "finish" dialog window that is already
checked and has the associated text "Launch XYZ after install
completes?" Unless the user does uncheck it, your app will run as
required once the finish dialog closes.

Ron,

Exactly what Geoff said!!

And if you don't want to display a "run checkbox", just move your
"Run Program" function after the last (Finish) Loop Wizard script
item.

Sorry, fat fingers... that should read "Don".

Thanks Geoff

That solved it. Somehow I had created a 'runfile1.exe' in addition to the
program. Removed it, checked the appropriate boxes - perfect.
