infrastructure reference

One thing that is terribly, terribly lacking in this program is documentation! MSI is not in any way intuitive, and yet, while creating a graphical interface to its functionality, you do not provide reference material so us country bumpkins can understand what things like "ARPAUTHORIZEDCDFPREFIX" mean! :P

Specifically, I would like to see some clear, comprehensive reference material for the predefined Properties available in Condition Editor dialogs, including what they do, what modify them, and what values can be expected to find in them.

Also, comprehensive reference material on VBScript/JScript functions, constants, and variables available through AI/MSI would be very nice. At this time, I am unable to use any scripting in AI because there is no reference available on how the scripting languages integrate with the AI/MSI system.

You will hear more from me soon :wink:
