Thanks David.
That is pretty much what I am doign too. I did not know you could use "*" for
the GUIDs other than for the ProductCode. I have a follow up question on that,
but I will ask in the thread with Bob.

Yep. Primadonnas that "just write their glorious code" and expect that somebody
else takes care of how it ends up installed on the end user system(s) are more
norm than exception. In fact, I can understand that. For example, I wouldn't

Have you tried a recent build? Version 3.5.2020 added support for AppPool
managedPipelineMode and managedRuntimeVersion. I expect more things will be
added as 3.5 gets closer to releasing. For now, anything that isn't
supported I do through Custom Action calls to appcmd.

Thanks for the thought. I checked this out when I started having

Thanks for your reply. I do understand that getting the volumn is done by
Windows Installer and WiX uses that. I was intended to know if we are able
to do similar task using WiX where we can choose the volume from Physical
Drive.
Thanks for your pointer.

Take a look at a verbose MSBuild log to see what -ext switches are being
passed to Candle.exe. My bet is that the reference isn't turning into an
-ext switch.

Pre-reqs of *your* software are *your* fault. Your development team implemented
the specs which make your product require the crap packages. The ability not to
