Hmm, good question. Not easy, but hey, SetupBuilder can do it. You have to
use a little (undocumented) trick here:

To "hide" the filename in the progress dialog, use:

Call DLL "user32.dll" -- Function "GetDlgItem" (long,long)
(%_SB_WIZHWND%,4026)
Call DLL "user32.dll" -- Function "ShowWindow" (long,long) (%_SB_RETURN%,0)

See attached func1.jpg and func2.jpg

To "show" the filename in the progress dialog, use:

Call DLL "user32.dll" -- Function "GetDlgItem" (long,long)
(%_SB_WIZHWND%,4026)
Call DLL "user32.dll" -- Function "ShowWindow" (long,long) (%_SB_RETURN%,5)

Does this help?

I have attached two include scripts.

To hide the filenames in the progress dialog, add the
HideProgressFileNames.sbi using #include script...

To show the filenames, add the ShowProgressFileNames.sbi.

Yes, without a need to call Windows APIs :-) It will be a built-in
(individual file based checkbox) function in SB7.
