I'm sorry if this is the wrong group to ask this question in, but I'm stumped. In the MSDN documentation "Deployment In Visual Studio 2005", it says the following in the "Text Boxes User Interface Deployment" instructions.... "In the registry, you would set the Condition property for the workgroup name registry entry to the value of the Edit1Property property. This does NOT work! I put the Edit1Property name (in my case EDITA) in the Condition box of the Registry entry that I want to set with the value of what the user typed into the Text Box and, after running the Setup program, nothing appears in the Registry. So, my question is... How do I take the value of something that a user typed into a Text Box and put it into the Registry? What "Condition" statement do I use? Thanks!
The condition is an expression that is about whether the registry entry should be created or not. You'll probably kick yourself, but you put the value in the Name/Value pane in the registry view in the IDE. Pick your name, then put [EDITA] as the value. -- Phil Wilson Definitive Guide to Windows Installer http://www.apress.com/book/view/1590592972 "Fred E" wrote in message news:072FF797-EF9A-48D6-8613-21A16F5D7B9A@microsoft.com... > I'm sorry if this is the wrong group to ask this question in, but I'm > stumped. > > In the MSDN documentation "Deployment In Visual Studio 2005", it says the > following in the "Text Boxes User Interface Deployment" instructions.... > > "In the registry, you would set the Condition property for the workgroup > name registry entry to the value of the Edit1Property property. > > This does NOT work!
