You know Bob, I've read that before but didn't think about how that could solve
another pain point. getting around the fact that the ShortCut table
doesn't format the shortcut name when dealing with multiple instance
installations. Still, it'd be nice not to have to write any CA's.

Yeah, I'm not sure how much we're going to do to XmlFile. At this point, it's
just there for backwards compatibility and simple cases that happen to work.
Feel free to open a bug with the log files attached... but don't be too
disappointed if we just punt it (since XmlConfig works correctly).
"Why release something that doesn't work?"
Usually, because we don't know that it doesn't work. The weekly releases are
just that. The weeks releases. There might be bugs. We need your help to
report the bugs when you find them so that we can start fixing them.

It looks like there IS some registry redirection going on there for

Hi Tim,
For SQL 2005 or SQL 2008 (i assume you use one of them) you need to find the
following registry key:

"SQLEXPRESS"="MSSQL.1"
Based on the value of the name of the instance ("SQLEXPRESS" in this
example) you'll

I recommend going through the WiX v2.0 tutorial (

convert to WiX 3 format.
That being said, here's the WiX 3 locale files (4 of them have been moved to
the new format, the rest you have to modify but those are easy changes).

Hi,
I'm totally newbie about WIX. I've just downloaded the last v3 version

I've got some basic questions that I've been unable to find in the
documentation:

select the language.
I have tried version 4130 and that also does not do it!
