Simple serial number question

[Research]

Hello,

I've created a setup which uses serial number verification. Has one number in list 'Serial Numbers 1'.

But when I run the compiled setup and the serial number screen appears, the serial number appears in the text box where the user should input it!

I'm sure I've just overlooked something but can't see what!

Thanks in advance.

I've never seen Setup Factory do that. In fact, I don't even see how it could.

Are you sure you're using a Verify Serial Number screen? You might want to double-check your settings on the Custom tab.

Oh, yeah, it is possible, Lorne.
Preview the Serial No Screen at design time. Enter a valid no. Press Next. Build the project. – The number you used will appear at runtime.
The solution to your problem, Research, is:
Rerun preview in Design mode, leave the input field empty, press Next (not Cancel). The MsgBox "Invalid serialno" appears, Press Cancel and rebuild the project.

Weird...thanks csd214.

Does that still happen in version 6.0.0.4?

Re: Simple serial number question

Just to confirm that this was the problem (I had entered code in preview screen to check) - thank you, csd214.

Plus it is version 6.0.0.4 that I use.
