Opening ReadMe file after GPO install

I am creating an installer to deploy via GPO as a User Based Software install on Server 2003. It runs fine Manually and after the install, it opens the readme rtf file perfectly. When run via GPO it installs correctly, but the Readme does not open.
I set this up under Dialogs\Exit Dialog and the Finish Actions tab.
Is the open Readme option a feature that does not work in GPO? Is there a another way to accomplish this?
Thanks for any help :)

Re: Opening ReadMe file after GPO install

Hello,

The installer is running silently during a GPO install. No user interface is displayed during this time.
You can try creating a Launch File or Open URL custom action that will run at the end of the installation and will launch the rtf file.

Best regards,
Gabriel
