joe_pool_is Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 My client wants me to get rid of Microsoft's default text in the Title of the installer (MSI). Instead, they want me to use their custom banner bitmaps. I am easily able to include each banner on each different page of the setup project, but how do I get rid of Microsoft's text? I don't care if it is hidden, set to an empty string, or anything else. It just should not be seen. I'm fine editing the MSI with ORCA, but I don't know what needs to be edited. Thanks for Helping! ~Joe Quote Avoid Sears Home Improvement
Nate Bross Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 Can you post a screen shot of the text you are talking about? Most of the configurable text is available in the Install Wizard Pages (form Setup/Deployment Project). The Title is the name of your solution, IIRC. In terms of the Window Title, that displays at the top and in the task bar, I don't know if you have control over that...

joe_pool_is Posted April 13, 2009 Author Posted April 13, 2009 Rats. I meant to update this thread, but I never got around to it. Editing with Orca solved the problem: In the Control table, I searched for all BannerText Controls and removed the text shown in their "Text" properties. The problem is that Visual Studio does not allow editing these fields. I would imagine this is to promote others to buy products like Install Shield, etc. Screen Shot: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_dWwXockqCZk/SeNnHefiYdI/AAAAAAAABek/wPQJbewWuCU/screenshot.PNG Quote Avoid Sears Home Improvement
