Hi all - we have an MSI with many DLL and a couple of EXE assemblies, the

virtually identical to the one provided in the WiX Help example, except for
product MSI.

When I double click on my msp file I get the welcome dialog, followed
by the maintenance dialog, giving me the choice to change, repair or

add/remove programs, but the text file does not show the changes that I
made.
