PRB: Background Bitmap in Custom Setup Cannot Be Altered Article ID: Q101078 Creation Date: 04-JUL-1993 Revision Date: 19-SEP-1996 The information in this article applies to: Microsoft Access Distribution Kit version 1.1 SYMPTOMS The Setup bitmap that appears in the background of a custom Setup program created with the Microsoft Access Distribution Kit (ADK) SetupWizard cannot be altered. STATUS This behavior is by design. MORE INFORMATION The SetupWizard in the ADK does not allow you to alter the Setup bitmap for custom Setup programs. However, the MSSetup kit that ships with the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) does allow you to build custom Setup programs with complete, programmatic control over every element of the Setup environment, including background bitmaps, buttons, and dialog boxes. If you want this level of control in creating your custom Setup program, you may want to consider using the SDK. Note, though, that the SDK tools cannot be used to modify an existing custom Setup program that was developed with the ADK.
