Correct. And the same custom action is used for both. The best approach

You have to add the .wixlibs to your link line manually now. It got very

That sounds like a known issue when opening an older .wixproj with a newer

The schema errors reported by VS are a red herring
I don't think this is possible with MSI. The SQL Server installer does
this, but I believe that's a custom rolled deal, not using the standard
installer.
