Hi Phil,

I have setup project where i have added a radio button dialog box. Now i
want to guide the user towards different screens based on the radio button
selected. How can i get this selected value in the custom actions class?

is there any other way to do the same?

Thanks,

You can't really do that with the Visual Studio dialog sequences. You can
add/remove some custom ones but there is no mechanism for branching to one
or another depending on the value of a property. Keep in mind that Visual
Studio's custom actions are all pretty much at the end of the install, and
too late to make dialog choices about how the install should proceed.

There are tools that let you choose which dialog is next and branch
according to user input, but Visual Stuidio isn't one of them.
