Hello all,

I just started with .NET and the the workgroups are really helpful for me to
get acquainted with the technology.

I am making a "Setup Project" using the "Setup and Deployment Project" in
.NET which creates a windows installer file(.msi).

Now I have to remove the command button for "Disk Cost" on the second screen
of the installer,which is used to check the space on the disks.

Please help me to achieve the same.

Thanks a lot


Regards,
Rajat Tandon.

Using Orca, go to the Control table, and there'll be a FolderForm dialog
with DiskCostButton in the Control column. Change the Attributes of that
DiskCostButton from 3 to 0.

FYI, those attributes are documented in the Attributes section here, setting
it to zero turns off the Visible and Enabled bits.
