InstallShield 2019 » Automation Interface » Advanced UI and Suite/Advanced UI
Project • This information applies to the following project types:
| • | Advanced UI |
| • | Suite/Advanced UI |
Edition • The Advanced UI project type is available in the Professional edition of InstallShield. The Suite/Advanced UI project type is available in the Premier edition of InstallShield. For information about the differences between these two project types, see Advanced UI Projects vs. Suite/Advanced UI Projects.
To open your Advanced UI or Suite/Advanced UI project so that you can modify it through the automation interface, call OpenProject with the fully qualified path to your .issuite file. This method is equivalent to loading a project in InstallShield.
Note • The OpenProject method fails if the project is open in InstallShield.
