Troubles with custom dialogs

I've got some troubles with custom dialogs.
I've modified the progress dialog in order to have smallest and basic form.
* First of the problems I meet is the Form Caption.
The property Caption of my form is set to $TITLE$ but when I install my soft the caption is "- InstallAware Wizard" ???
I don't understand why, but when I uninstall my soft the form caption is correct.
* The second problem I have is the position of the form. I want it to be in top left corner. I set top property to 10, the left property to 10 and finally the Position property to poDesigned.
When (un)installing the form is screen centered ???!!!
* Can I hide the first package validation form?
Thanks for your help

Oh, no this cannot be changed, it can only be localized, as you did.. It's an internal InstallAWARE dialog which cannot be edited.
But you can still use the powerful dialog designer on the rest of them, to create your own unique dialogs for you setup.

I just wanted to hide this form in order to prevent user to Cancel at this step. I suppose I can't change Cancel button behavior?

Michael, do you have ideas for the others problems (Position and caption). Sorry but I don't find the opened topic. I 'm still searching anyway.
