Hi,
I'll have to use FileVersionInfo.ProductVersion.
FileVersion functions are available but it seems product version functions
aren't--maybe I'll submit a patch!
Cheers
Sean.

The cool thing is that if you always use Bundles to install your MSI
packages, shared MSI packages will be correctly reference counted and only
removed when the last Bundle that needs it is removed. Totally avoids all
the bad behaviors.

Okay I have placed the .zip file in my dropbox:

that would be great.

If you could get the logs posted I am sure a few others would take a look at

I forwarded an email to you with .zip file that contains the Process Monitor

You can use your FileVersionInfo.FileVersion if you insist ;)

I personally prefer my CA's to be in C++, and if you so choose you could use
some of the functionality in dutil. Ex: FileVersionFromString,

Hi,
Great post! How does this change in WiX 3.7?

If you're referring to file versions, I wouldn't be surprised if it's not
made available because it's not that complicated to just call
MsiGetFileVersion() and parse the results.

A couple of things:
1. You should be able to do this in WiX using the control condition stuff,
although I'm not an expert on how that works. There are always UI elements
that are shown or not depending on the value of a property. That's common
for things like the Next button, which won't be shown
The setup is running on a different thread if you followed the defaults when

Hello Rob,
This signing is becoming a real pain. If we do not sign the Burn .exe then the
install will continue as expected, but when signed we always get this

You can only update temporary rows and tables at install time, not persistent
rows. What you can do is delete the row you wish to update and then insert a
new temporary row with the data you need.

If the bundle exe is uninstalled it would uninstall the msi. So you can
install the standalone msi again after. If you try to install msi after
installing bundle exe the msi will not install as the bundle already installed

If you install MSI and then install bundle exe then you'll see two

Hi,
I'm doing that because I need on the fly change (wix variables don't allow me

You can only do this with TEMPORARY updates once the installer is running.
