Thanks for the useful info.

The following may be of interest to others working with Wix dialogs:

To quickly view your all of your dialogs without running setup:

"%mssdk%"\samples\sysmgmt\msi\scripts\WiDialog.vbs MySetup.msi

Generate reference Wix source for most dialogs you would possibly need, including FilesInUse:

dark /nologo "%mssdk%"\samples\sysmgmt\msi\database\UISample.Msi

Basically, my question is in the subject line. I can't seem to find documentation or examples illustrating the basic technique of disabling a pushbutton control as a result of the user clicking on that same control without changing dialogs. I've tried so many permutations on Condition Actions and Publish Event constructs and Custom Actions that I don't really have a coherent code snippet from which to work. I was hoping that the problem is simple and well known and that I've just somehow managed to miss the obvious. Many thanks.
