BUG ? RTF files don't display embedded images

Indirect property : CompanyLogo
I figured out you have to add it under teh Dialogs section, then the images tab. You can edit CompanyLogo there to point to your own image file.

Re: HELP: Creating installer with basic .net windows service
What happens is that you need to overwrite one of the methods "Install", "Rollback", "Commit", "Uninstall" corespondent to what you set in the "Action" parameter. My action is "Install". From my previous post: public override void Install(...

Re: HELP: Creating installer with basic .net windows service
Is there any reply from _Advance Installer_ , or am I just left on my own ? At the least, can you please confirm if it ( .NET Installer class - Custom Action ) is supposed to work? That's not too much to ask is it.

Re: HELP: Creating installer with basic .net windows service
