I have a situation where version 2.0 of our product was set up with an option

I've tried following the advice on the msdn documentation that states there
are 3 different scenarios where you can schedule RemoveExistingProducts.
However, my new product gets installed, and the old one remains.
I'll start with the relevant log snip. I'm not sure what I'm missing in
this case
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370912.aspx
Try making the property public so it can be passed from the UI to execute
sequence.

You can tie it to your control, wherein DBNameValidation my CA Id.
Ex:

Or, if you're working with a stock dialog, you can order the control in the
publish tag inside of the UI sequence.

I think I know what you're getting at here. Say you click on the Browse
button and change the path, you want that path to show up in another dialog
later on in the UI sequence?
If that is the case, I found something kind of nifty.
The way it works is, in the CustomizeDlg I set the INSTA

You could set up a radiobuttongroup control and tie that condition property

Is it possible to include a new feature inside of a patch that didn't exist
in the original msi?
I've been reading about this and from my understanding if it's not at the
top level, it should be okay. So I've nested the feature directly within an
existing feature, but still can't compile the msi
Would a feature request be reasonable here?
I don't even think I'd be able to even see it/use it for our release, but
for future projects it could be helpful.

Hey guys,
Is there a property that gets set if an sqlscript fails while set to
continueonerror="yes" ???
All I can find is ExitOnFailure under scasqlstr.cpp...
Do I need to rebuild the extension and do an MsiSetProperty inside that src
to achieve this?
I have a CA I want to schedule at the end
I'm gonna go out on a limb here. Since it looks like some sort of error in
the binary table, is it required to declare a second binary pointing to the
same script to use in the patch component? Is there some clashing since I'm
using SqlScript1 in both components?

Is there an answer for this? I still can't get it to work, and I've seen
others complain too. I can post my code if someone has time to help out.

r, and what I'm trying
to accomplish is, if the script fails, the patch install will continue and
finish, then I want to launch a setupassistant exe. So, what I'm really
looking for is probably something to key off of whenever the CA

I'm extremely interested in this myself. I know Rob pointed out using
sqlscript/string, but I'm getting a failure on my patch as well when doing
that stating 'unable to connect to database'. I've read in some forums sql
db's don't lend themselves to patches. That could be completely inaccurate
has anyone figured out how to get a remote sql db to fire off scripts on a
patch?
my initial install works fine, but the patch fails saying it can't connect
to [DBNAME].

My situation is I want a launch condition to fire off if the product has yet
to be installed (it's a regsearch to look for any other related products).
If the product gets installed, I want to make it so the launch condition

If it's still not working... try this instead:
ElementPath="/configuration/myComponent/section/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'foo'[\]]"
VerifyPath="/configuration/myComponent/section/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'foo'[\]]"
Then it will update "foo" w/ the property you pass in for the Value.

I have a problem w/ my patch not being uninstallable.

Never done one of those, but I'd say open your msi w/ Orca and look at the
Error table for the index and supply that as the Error="#" attribute, and it
will pop your corresponding msg.

I'd say that error is very general. Chances are you have missing
dependencies. Run your file through reflector or depends and see what you
might be missing.
