That sets a public property (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/msi/setup/command_line_options.asp) and you could add a custom action to the UI sequence with a condition of "URL" so that it's triggered only if the URL property is set. (You could also call it as a ControlEvent from the "install complete" dialog.) You'll have to write a custom action to open a browser; MSI doesn't have any standard action to do that. -- sig://boB http://foobob.com ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
