This now works fine!
Is it possible to set the variable within the main.wxs file so that

In my defence Bob I wrote my patching code when I was using WiX 2.0 thus
the only method available to me was the PatchWiz method. When I moved
over to using WiX 3.0 I looked at the Pyro method as the idea of using
purely WiX appealed but as time isn't infinite when software releases
are concerned I
You have to reference the "F.Plugin.Users.Sync" Feature in the
"F.Plugin.Users" Feature (as this is referenced in the "F.Plugins"
feature) for that tree to work.
As Bob A says, the problem here is your trying to refer to a parent
feature in a child fragment & WiX doesn't work like that (references
Windows Installer makes calls to the Cabinet API to decompress your cab

there's much you can do to change Windows Installer behaviour using WiX.
As the first read to the start of the cab file isn't always at the same

Hi,
I have a custom dialog box that contains checkboxes to allow the user to
select what shortcuts they want installing. I then have a component for
each shortcut with a condition inside it.

OK, let me know if I got the concept now.
Here's what I did...
Made sure OURVERSION property was added to SecureCustomProperties.
Created Two Deferred Custom Actions...
One passes [OURVERSION] as a command line parameter for an .exe.
The other uses VBScript to display Session.Prop

Anyone have any ideas on this one:

Thanks Pally.
It doesn't seem to be working for some reason, whether the initial
install has them turned off or on, I never seem to be able to change
it. Everything I've read seems to indicate that it should work so I'll

Depending on your requirements, MSI can do this for you, selecting the
