I use heat to generate a WXS file with Fragments. I used the -var arg to
replace the path to the files with a preprocessor variable. I can specify
the variable's value in the command line to candle with the -d argument.
But, I have a wxi file that I would like to include.

There are tools in the Windows SDK (I am currently using v7) that can query
an MSI database. Look especially at the vbs scripts, you can invoke them
with SQL to query properties and tables.

Here is the post that leads me to believe that admin rights are required
for ICEs and NIT. It is a continuous integration environment that fails for
me with a build account that does not have admin rights:

Is it correct to say that if LIGHT is allowed to run the internal
consistency evaluators (ICEs, light runs them by default), and if NIT is
used to run unit tests, that the account performing these actions requires
admin rights? (WIX 3.5, Windows Server 2008 R2.)
This is because ICEs and NIT run
A even run? You probably need to schedule it in
InstallExecuteSequence. New to Lux myself, but I don't think Lux
starts/stops the CA's by itself.

Is there some info on how WIX 3.5.2519.0 dialog behavior is affected by the
order in which the control elements are written in the XML?
For example, I had a problem with my Next button not being the default
button, even when it was the only control on the dialog marked as "default".
I fixed the pr
Try codeplex.com, that's the open source repository that is more focused on
.NET. WIX is there. I haven't had trouble at sourceforge lately, but try
