Changing a control's property.
This is an EXE, not an MSI..
I've looked through help and I guess I'm just missing it. How do I change a control's property/attribute?
For example I have check boxes and radio buttons. I'm checking registry and if there is a specific value, I'm wanting to disable one of the check boxes and one of the radio buttons. I see they both have an enable properties, but I'm not finding how to change them on the fly.
I found SetProperty, but that doesn't seem to be a function so I'm unsure how to use it. Would have been nice if the third parm of CtrlSetState() was an INT instead of a BOOL so that it could handle more than just check state.
_WinSubEnableControl (hwndDlg, INSTALL_TYPE_CHECK_INSTALL_CONSOLE, 0);
I can't seem to get EnableWindow to work. I'm unable to find any example code so I know it's params, but I guessed based on ShowWindows it (HWND, 0/1). Doesn't error, but doesnt seem to do anything either.
Is there a version of _WinSubEnableControl for Show and Hide as well?
hwndItem = GetDlgItem( hwndDlg, nControlID );
So, that seems a lot of extra steps. Seems to me that _WinSubEnableControl would be a better use, or is it?
I'm still searching for the Show Hide version of _WinSubEnableControl
P.S. Winsub.rul suggests there's a _WinSubShowWindow function, but I haven't used it (I tend to use GetDlgItem and ShowWindow).
hCtrl = GetDlgItem(hwndDlg, INSTALL_TYPE_CHECK_INSTALL_CONSOLE);
//_WinSubShowWindow(hCtrl, 0);
ShowWindow(hCtrl, 0);
Is there a list somewhere of all API's in InstallShield? If there were it would save a lot of time just searching for Enable and seing what comes up..
Kind of like VB6 and their TXT file with all the Windows API Declarations.. That would be awsome.
