Hi all,

Thank-you for reading this and providing some feedback.

I am using InstallShield 5.5 and I have a script that will check for an
existing copy of the program I am installing. If it exists then I ask the
user to uninstall the previous version. If they say yes then
UnInstallShield kicks in and begins to the uninstall process.

Here is where I am having the problem. Normally I see the shared file
dialog box (you know the one that says the following files are shared do you
want to remove them, blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda.). However, in
the script I am working on, this function does not seem to work, and I have
had a couple of shared dll's and ocx's removed from my system causing other
prgorams to nit function properly.

How can I rectify this problem? I need to see that dialog box as
UnInstallShield runs.

Thank-you again for your time

Regards

Paul
