Hi
Every time when i Reinstall an previously installed
"Application",which was created using apple PackageMaker the text
on "Install" button changes to "Upgrade" button even though I have
already uninstalled the application. I want to change text of
"Upgrade" button of Installer back to "Install".

any help will be appreciated
Thanx in advance
AFAIK, as long as the receipt of your package is in /Library/
Receipts, the button will be labeled "Upgrade".
True. Usual workaround is to change the name (previous to Tiger) or
CFBundleIdentifier (Tiger and later) to something that doesn't match
any receipt.
Of course, that does not allow the installer to do "Upgrade"
behavior, which basically boils down to this: "If any files were
installed in the old receipt, and are not in the new package, these
files will be considered obsolete and removes."
In the case Narender Pal Singh is dealing with, probably what you
want to do is to remove the receipt along with the other parts of the
application.
This is almost certainly an OK thing to do. I'd probably do this:
rm -rf "$INSTALLATIONVOLUME/Library/Receipts/
MyGreatInstallerPackage.pkg"
or equivalent.
