Some how on my dialogs screen in IA the registration with serial has been replaced with start installation. I have no idea how this happened or when this happened. All i know is that it is in all of my prohects and I have no idea how to fix it.

In the APP.mpr all of the file show up just fine. I see screen shots below for what I mean.

Here is the list of dialogs from the MSI Viewer. They all show up correctly.

I don't understand what you are saying.
The 1st screen shot (From the IDE) shows the dialogs in the order the appear in your script logic.

The 2nd screen shot (From the MSICOde view) shows the same dialogs as in screen shot 1, just in alphabetical order and only once for each dialog.

I only call each dialog once. Also if you notice in my design view I can no longer see the "regisrationwithserial" dialog as a check able option. I know that this has also happend to one of your guys at installaware because the same problem apears in page 20 of this white paper
http://www.installaware.com/installawar ... dotnet.pdf

and again I only call each dialog once. This is happening in all of my projects both new and old. I have uninstalled and reinstalled IA already with no help. infact the problem got worse when i installed the lastest version of installaware. Before the reinstall i only have "startinstallation" showing up twice in my design view but now I have "componentstree" showing up twice.

I was an early adopter of InstallAware and have never experienced this issue. In my experience InstallAware does not change the dialogs in a project. If you are experiencing this anomoly I suggest you open a support ticket.
