forcing the write back cache to write through
having a problem with target machine caching the newly written ini file and not writing needed values till after install is over. creates erroneous xml config files.

have been trying to use flushINI but it is the file write that is the problem not the ini buffer.

That means: high chance of a scripting problem. If you don't want to keep explaining and explaining you can just attach your script. For me that's the most pratical way.:)

But yeah, you need to explain what you're trying to do.

first, can't publish installer, would endanger job (which doesn't work for me, sorry)

second, is there a method to check timestamp on a file?

You can debug scripts by using MessageBox commands or using DumpLog plugin found on Archive. These I use everyday on my application.

second, is there a method to check timestamp on a file?

You can use the constant ${__TIMESTAMP__} for comparations.

I dont find ${__TIMESTAMP__} anywhere. Can you direct me or give me usage?

Thanks,
