I'm posting 3 year after becouse i see this question in this forum and i know that is not so easy to find that information about how to customize an installshield setup.ini Also i respond about the question up for anyone who wants it

for put a serial inside a setup.ini in a installshield program you must to edit the file puting the following:

[Mif]
Type=SMS
FileName=
SerialNo=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Type=SMS must be writed just this way
FileName= you can put the name of the program. This is optional is the name of the file .mif that installshield will create with the serial number (this is for instalator functions) you can fill it or not
Where XXXX-XXXX-XXXX is the serial number of the program you want to put automatically the serial

inside a setup.ini this will be this way:

[Startup]
AppName=Illustrator
ProductGUID=91a4ad99-69ce-4745-97b7-0e0dfbecfde5
CompanyName=Adobe
ErrorReportURL=http://www.installshield.com/isetup/ProErrorCentral.asp?ErrorCode=%d : 0x%x&ErrorInfo=%s
