Yes, though there are some bugs around
What I'm doing in a situation much like that is using an interpreted
language to generate my .wxs files... That way, I have control over how
the GUID's are generated.
I have to admit I use Perl to do it, but you could do it in another

Hi Brian,
Thanks for the reply. I fully get the difficulty of doing dynamic
creation, that's why I think having a zip file in there would work in this
