instfiles help

The problem I am having is that when the instfiles page displays the text for each section install, it displays ExecWait '$SYSDIR\flashinstaller.exe'. I want it to display something like "Installing Macromedia Flash 7 ......." instead.

This is probably an easy fix. Here is the section code I created:

Section "Macromedia Flash 7"
;MessageBox MB_OK $SOFTFLASH
${IF} $SOFTFLASH < "6"
DetailPrint "Installing Macromedia Flash 7 ......."
Call PreInstallFlash
DetailPrint "Installed Macromedia Flash 7 Successfully"
Sleep 1000
${ENDIF}
SectionEnd

Here is the function code:

Function PreInstallFlash

SetOutPath $SYSDIR
File "flashinstaller.exe"
ExecWait '$SYSDIR\flashinstaller.exe' $ERRCODE

FunctionEnd

Use SetDetailsPrint. It can suppress any output.

THe text that I am talking about is the text just above the progress bar, not the detail window. Sorry for not specifying this earlier.

Still, use SetDetailsPrint. It can suppress output completely, not just from the log window.
