You cannot display an InstallOptions dialog from a section.
You must call it inside a custom page function created by:

!include Sections.nsh

Page Custom ShowFunc

Section /o "Create Database" SecCreateDatabase
SectionEnd

Function ShowFunc
!insertmacro SectionFlagIsSet ${SecCreateDatabase} ${SF_SELECTED} "" End
!insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_DISPLAY "ioFile.ini"
End:
FunctionEnd

Please attach large scripts instead of pasting them. And when you do paste in a script, use [code] markup so it'll look better.

Afrow,

i try yours example code but when i compile it, i get an error

!insertmacro: end of SectionFlagIsSet
!insertmacro: MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_DISPLAY
!insertmacro: macro named "MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_DISPLAY" not found!
Error in script "F:\Data\Development\eclipse\payroll\payroll-inst-script.nsi" on line 96 -- aborting creation process

TIA,

andy

If you aren't using Modern UI, use InstallOptions::dialog instead.

i use InstallOptionsEx, now i can see my custom page, but the order not what i want.

i would like the page display like this

1.Page Component
2.install the component
3.a page that ask mysql dir
4.install the program

but what i get is a "page that ask mysql dir" showing as last page.

How to get that i want.

Move:
Page Custom ShowCustom CloseCustom
To where you want it. The order of pages set in the script will be the same for the installer.
