Database.Merge is to merge two MSI files together not to "do the merge
process for a Merge Module". There is a collection of other interfaces
for doing that not sure that DTF exposes it but you can see the WiX
toolset does it.

WiX toolset uses COM interop to talk to mergemod.dll.

Hi All,
I run into a stange problem. Forgive me if this question is a bit of long. I
try to make it shorter.
I need your hlep.
We're using WiX version 3.0.4805.0.
The problem is:

Both of you are correct. I have an XSLT that massage the XML that heat
generates in order to ensure certain shortcuts are added and changes a few
other things as well. In the process, the XSLT is not doing its job. I
would cancel the bug as it looks like like it's a data issue on my end.
Sorry
Running heat and candle against the file you attached to the bug doesn't
generate the error you reported could you give more details of the
command lines you are using?

The interface element is inside the element, I have just
checked my code and this is valid and has been the same for a while, so
the error doesn't really make sense. When you raise a bug is it possible
to include the DLL you are scanning?

Hi Brian,
The bug is:

I've attached a DLL you can use to test with in case you don't have one to
reproduce the issue.
Thanks!

One question on this however. From the code you sent the
element is actually under the which is legal. Are you sure that
it is that actual line and not some where else?

In my setup project, I am using wxl files for localization. But, there are

1. The web stuff I'm not sure about. It's likely possible using custom

similar but I don't think pulling arbitrary files off a web server is

They don't handle patching very well either. The Welcome Dialog refers
to a Resumed install when running a patch (MSP) and the Progress Dialog
is devoid of all text except the ActionText. Exit Dialog could probably
do with more specific text to Patching too.
