Can error/warning messages be altered to custom text?

For example, when the target system does not contain Dot.Net framework 4, we wish to show a custom text string, or better still, show an RTF file with instructions on where to get it and how to install it. Are these two possible?

Re: Can error/warning messages be altered to custom text?

Hi,

There are multiple solutions for this:
- use the predefined launch condition and modify its description through Table Editor page
- create a custom launch condition and set any description you want
- use a search to determine if .NET Framework is installed; the search property can then condition a custom action which does anything you want (through custom code)

Perhaps it would be simpler to use a prerequisite.
