Thank you Dana! I will give that a go. The lack of support for this in WiX is troubling. I see the "fix" is to simply fail to compile if you specify two files. Boo. > Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2008 08:20:15 -0400> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: > wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [WiX-u

Re: [WiX-users] How to Change Default Install Location

I wouldn't recommend forcing the user to use a specific location (especially a certain drive), but if you must, you can set the ROOTDRIVE property ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371372(VS.85).aspx) to force the default root drive to E.

Re: [WiX-users] Custom Action and InstallExecuteSequence dont work in Fragment.

Product.wxs has to reference the fragment somehow or another for it to get picked up. Assuming that only the contents of the CA are generated on the fly (i.e. you know the names beforehand) one way to do this is to use the CustomActionRef element in your Product.wxs. -Francis On Tue, Sep 16, 20

It's pretty easy to do in WiX though. You just have to write a sqlstring element that creates the filegroups for you. Use WiX to create your database, then add the following to a SqlString element. One thing to note is you do need a fully qualified filename so you'll need to make sure you resolv
