InstallShield

	I've been working on getting the Free Borland installer working. It
uses installshield so I think this pertains to all installshield
installers .. I've found a problem in propsheet.c ,
PROPSHEET_CollectPageInfo() . It appears that the property pages that
come out of the installer have the PSP_USETITLE flag set. So wine
attempts to get the title from the pszTitle field. The problem occurs
because the pszTitle field is null. Wine try's to use it as a resource
ID then fails. From reading over some MS docs I think windows, in this
situation,  reverts the PSP_USETITLE flag then uses the title in the
template. So far I can get the installer to work, but it doesn't have a
title or caption I haven't figured out why.

	I tryed changind it to "if (dwFlags & PSP_USETITLE &&
LOWORD(lppsp->pszTitle) != 0)" but it didn't have any effect. I also
tryed reverting the PSP_USETITLE flag with no effect. Anyone have any
ideas why there isn't a title? 


	The patch below should fix the borland installer and , I assume, other
install shield installers. Let me know if this patch doesn't work..
