Choosing sections to apply

Is it possible to choose which section to apply and which not to apply if I'm NOT using a components page ?

I'm using a custom page with radiobuttons and I want each button associated with a different section.

Thanks,
Rolando

ok I found SelectSection and UnselectSection macros but they can't seem to work properly. Here's the code I'm using:
Function select



  ReadINIStr $0 "$PLUGINSDIR\opts.ini" "Settings" "State"

  StrCmp $0 0 sel

  Abort



sel:

  !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_READ $0 "opts.ini" "Field 5" "State"

  StrCmp $0 "1" s1

  !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_READ $0 "opts.ini" "Field 6" "State"

  StrCmp $0 "1" s2



s1:

  !insertmacro SelectSection first

  !insertmacro UnselectSection second

  goto end



s2:

  !insertmacro UnselectSection first

  !insertmacro SelectSection second

  goto end



end:



FunctionEnd

"first" and "second" are not proper section identifiers. You need to use ${first} and ${second}.

urm... I tried that but now only the first section is performed. Could it be that's because I'm using MUI ?

If only the first section is performed, it's probably because you put the function above the section definitions. The section identifier are only defined after the section instruction is processed. Move the function below the sections and it should work.
