Hide ExecWait command-line

Hi,

In my current installer I execute a quiet setup of both MDAC (Microsoft Data Access Components) and the VB Runtime. This can be done by executing Microsoft's packages with certain parameters, like:

ExecWait "MDAC_TYP.EXE /Q:A /C:$\"dasetup /Q /N$\""

Unfortunately these commands are shown in the execute-textbox of the modern GUI and they also show up in the installation log. Is it possible to replace these with some arbitrary text, like: "installing MDAC"?

I already use the banner plugin to display a banner while installing those files, but I don't like the fact that the command-line commands are visible.

Greetings,

Leon Zandman

Use SetDetailsPrint to hide the text and DetailPrint to print your own.

Thanx Kichik, that was just what I needed 🙂
