custom page issue
Below is the NSIS script I am working on.
For it to run it would require a file called SideGroup.txt to be in c:\NSISFiles and
the file would have the format of:
a
b
c
Now to my problem.
I have create three cutom pages.
The first queries the user as to the type of database they are using.
The Second will either get a access database or the SQL server info needed to make a connection.
The third is conditional based on if the 'Section "Install Desktop Shortcut for Training Database" AppTraining' is selected. By default it is off.
When this selection is made and the install button clicked, it displays this screen and allows
a training database to be selected.... but no further action is possible. All buttons on this screen are disabled and the only way to get out of it is to kill the task manually via task manager.
So.... what am I doing wrong here? (And 'everything' might be an acceptable answer.)
Many thanks for any help provided.
