Pasting a big-long-serial number into the masked edit?

Hi, guys -

We're generating one of those big long serial numbers of the format <??????-??????-??????-??????> and currently have to break it into 4 pieces and cut/paste each piece separately into the 4 edit boxes on the serial number page.

Is there a setting or other way to allow the user to just paste the whole thing once and have it overlay all four boxes automatically?

Thanks!

Hi Rob,

I'm afraid that this is not supported by Windows Installer. However, a solution would be to use a single edit box for the entire serial number.
