| Tarma QuickInstall 2 | InstallMate 9 | Changes and conversion notes |
|---|---|---|
| The following are now on the User interface project page: | ||
| Include customer registration page with the following fields | Include customer registration page | In InstallMate 9, this option sets the UIRegistrationPage variable, which in turn controls the execution of various registration-related actions in the UIFirstInstall action sequence on the Actions project page. |
| 1, 2, 3 | User field 1, 2, 3 | In InstallMate 9, these control whether or not registry I/O takes place for the corresponding UserField1, UserField2, and UserField3 variables. The actual field labels can be changed in the predefined RegistrationDlg dialog box on the Dialogs page. |
| Required | n/a | In InstallMate 9, you can control this for each field by setting the Not empty attribute of the various EditText controls in the predefined RegistrationDlg dialog box on the Dialogs page. |
| Store as | User field 1, 2, 3 | Same function as in Tarma QuickInstall 2. |

| Use <RegOwner> and <RegOrganization> to initialize fields 1 and 2 | n/a | The UserField1 and UserField2 variables are by default initialized by the RegOwner and RegOrganization variables. To change this, modify the UserField1 and UserField2 variables on the Variables project page. |
