You might want to add WixTrim to your toolset. It is a Visual Designer for Wix. Here is the link for WixTrim on SourceForge: sourceforge.net/.../wixtrim

Yes, you need a Print Button on the EULA screen...do something like this after wiring up the custom action as shown above

So, how does the Custom Action get called?

Do I need a Print button under the EULA, which is linked somehow to the CA?

Thanks

RTF is such an awful format though, and whatever RTF renderer WiX is using is much worse than Word itself. If it supported HTML in this box it would be much more convenient.

I have definitely ran into this issue in the past so hopefully this helps someone out. Another thing regarding MSI properties that comes to mind is setting the SecureCustomProperties property when running installs on Vista.

As the above link states, SecureCustomProperties allows the passing of public properties to " to the server side when doing a managed installation with elevated privileges.".

Wow, its too bad that the documentation is still so poor. I remember digging through Wix 'docs' a few years back, and the best way to find out functionality was to just read the code. That was when it was very new though, so I would just search for MSI table names or Wix elements in the Wix C++ custom actions to see what they actually did.

This should be a helpful post...adding print functionality to the InstallShield license dialog by default was one of my first work orders back in my InstallShield days:)
