How to get Service Installer to Prompt for service Name?

I want to be able to install multiple copies of a service on a single
machine.

I am going to use an INI file for the services so that they both do
different things, but I want to know how to have the installer prompt for
the name of the service to be created - and use that name for the install
directory if possible....

Any ideas??

Thanks

Andrew
