Show Any Tye Of Progress Or Status Message On PrepareToInstall

[Mohammad Kamrul Hassan]

My installer/script does some heavy check on "PrepareToInstall" function. 

so, it looks like it's doing nothing and frozen.. 

and user may close/kill it.. for that

is there any way i can show any progress like updating status label to show what is doing..

for example, my script does check for all external file existence and also check for validity by md5 hashing. 

which take considerable amount of time. 

If i can show/update a label/text that what it is doing.. then user can understand that it's not frozen.

Note: i tried gemni suggested WizardForm.StatusLabel.Caption but that didn't work.. 

Please let me know if that is possible and if then how

best regards

Have a look at CreateOutputProgressPage in the CodeDlg example script.
