I am making another MSI Script with the Beta compiler.
It seems like it just adds a EULA dialog without beeing asked.
OK, no particular problem, if I could change the text.
I believed that it got its text from C:\Program
Files\Lindersoft\SetupBuilder 6 Developer\Redist\1033\, and has replaced the
EULA.RTF with my own, but no Joy.
Solutions, dear Friedrich?

By the way, the MSI scripts is used quite a lot now for comercial
installations from BB-Soft A/S to Citrix installations. No complaints so far
from the users.

Yes :) The \Redist\1033\ location is for standard installations.

Your MSI license is in the MSI sub-folder ;-) Does this help?

Perfect! Thanks so much for the good news.

Our expect to open the beta program for SetupBuilder 7 later next month. Of
course, you are already on the beta list <g>

Thanks,

To be honest, I don't have exact figures because the released MSI compiler
for SB6 was a pre-alpha build. We have used the MSI compiler to convert MSM
to "real world" MSI packages for two large Fortune 500 script writing
consulting projects. No complaint at all.
