InstallAware

Hi

I am putting a license.rtf file in InstallAware that has links. The links appear as blue and look like hyperlinks but they are not clickable. Is there a way to make these work so that when the user click on the link it will open the link in the browser?

The best advise is to convert your license.rtf to html, rename it to index.htm and use an html control. If you're not using an edition of InsatallAware that allows dialog editing, you may want to just include the paths to the links in your document.

Otherwise, you can try to find a program that allows you to place hyperlinks into a rich text file. I did a quick google search and it looks like you could write a program to display links in a rich text field, so there may be one that exists to allow them to be edited in to a document.

I would just use html myself.

Thanks for replying back. I use Word to edit the RTF links but they still don't work. Do you suggest I use a different program to edit links in the RTF? If anything I use HTML.

I am trying to change to an index.htm but I got stucked. I am using index.htm already to show an image according to the language stored. Now I cannot use the index.htm again to display the license in a different form. Again the License is going to be shown differently for different languages. Any idea how I can go around this issue in InstallAware?

Yes, you can add multiple htm files. As you need each one, you will need to copy/rename (move) it to index.htm for the time you want that htm file to be used.

We do have a feature request to associate a specific htm file with each individual html control, so this behavior should be easier to accomplish in the future.

Hi, is there any option to have a hyperlink in License.rtf file?

When i try to add i installation the link is shown as <http:// someweb.com>, but cannot be invoked.
Let us know how can we do this

Unfortunately, this is not possible with RTF files.
