In a Setup Project is it possible to validate the user input in a TextBox(A) dialog

Question

I am using the VS 2010 to create a setup project, I am going to use the TextBox(A) dialog to capture user input.

I would also like to validate inputted value in these text box. Something likes the Next button just be enabled only when the first text box meets a specific criteria. So that, the installer just navigates user to next page when the validation passed.

Is it possible with the VS 2010?

There's no support in VS setups for doing this. It's a feature that's available in other tools and is part of Windows Installer, so you'd need to use another tool to add that functionality to the setup.
