Another bug
On my IO multiline text box, I have 116 lines of text, with a string length of 1000 or more.
On my Win98SE machine, unless I delete a few lines of text, it will not let me move to the next page.

...it will not let me move to the next page.

Any error? message? This control have a limit of 65535 chars I think (not sure), but should work with 1000+ chars on it

I was testing it, and found the problem, windows limitations, the problem is that INI file have size limit, we will think about another solution, for now try to use MULTIEDIT just for small inputs,

if its not for user input, you can use license page RichEdit

Ok, here is another bug I discovered.
Since now, I have had a link control on the page before the last page of my installer.
Now, if I don't touch the link control (open it) then I am able to go past the last page and quit.
However, if I click the link control, then when leaving the second page (exit button) my installer crashes.

Before it came after the page containing the link ,and only happened on WinNT/9x, but now it happens on WinNT/XP/9x on the second page after the link page.

The input is a list of detected zip files that need to be downloaded. This list changes depending on what updates my app does not find on the users' PC.
The user needs to be able to be able to delete some of the maps from the list that he does no want to download.

This would be cool for MultiLine boxes: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....hreadid=143336
