User interface editor during installation

I have scoured the net looking for a walkthrough showing how to get the
details from a user interface editor page and use the settings in an
application.

For example, I have a dialog during installation which asks the user for
their name. How do I capture the value they enter and use it in the
application?

That is a simple example but I would like to be able to get the values they
enter and make use of them, such as a path to a database, their name and
address, etc.

PLEASE, can anyone point me to a demo or post one here.

Many thanks in advance.
 
Hi,

If you are using a Visual Studio.NET setup project then take a look at the following post:
 
Sorry Dave, but that link didn't work for me. If you can reproduce it
another way I would appreciate it.
 
Hi,

Sorry about that. I posted the link in a format that client news readers can usually open.

Just FYI, the post is a response that I gave to another user that explains the steps you can take and links to articles that may
help you to answer other questions you might have. If you're confused by the subject matter (because it's taken out of context) let
me know and I'll try to explain it better for you if you'd like.

Hi Dave,

that look just what I am looking for. I will have a go this weekend and let
you know if these is anything I need to clarify.

Once again, many thanks.
