Ok, thanks.
I guess my question is when the locator is resolved.
The scenario you described is exactly what I have. I just wasn't sure if
the locator would try and resolve itself before the db is created in the
scenario where the db doesn't exist yet.

I'm not sure if this is according to Best Practices or not, but you could also
change the component code of the file whose version is downgraded so that it is

The decision to replace files (or not) is associated with Costing, and that's
happened by the time your RemoveExistingProducts runs.
You could try sequencing RemoveExistingProducts before CostInitialize. That

Hi,
I want to adjust my installer to have 2 different modes:
1. User wants to create database and then I run a set of SqlString
