How to customize Textboxes User Interface Dialog Box


I use the setup project of Microsoft Visual Studio.

I would like to customize one of the textbox in the user interface
dialog box of my program setup.
I would like to know if there is a way to add a property to one of the
EditNLabel in order to use it as a password textbox.

Thanks dumolas

So you want to be able to customize the TextBox that you can use in the
Visual Studio setup and deployment project? In the past I have had a
very difficult time getting the setup and deployment project to look
and do what I want. Instead I have created my own forms which I launch
through the "custom actions" portion of the project. If you create your
own form you can do whatever you want and it's not too difficult to add
it to your deployment project.

If you decide to go this route and have trouble there is a group for
creating setup and deployment projects. It is not very active but you
can get questions answered there. Also feel free to reply to this and I
can put in some sample code. Good luck.
