Hi all, I have a question regarding the way to reference a merge module. Based on a wix tutorial i saw on the web, http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson4.php#4.4 , the author wrote a separate merge module file which includes this line : <Module Id="File1" Guid="YOURGUID-8DEE-4410-990A-1802896C4209" Language="0" Version="1.2.3">
In the main source file, the author actually references this merge module by indicating : <Merge Id="file1.YOURGUID-8DEE-4410-990A-1802896C4209" Language="1033" SourceFile="Module1.msm" DiskId="1" /> and <MergeRef Id="file1.YOURGUID-8DEE-4410-990A-1802896C4209" />. I have tried out using other strings for the Merge Id instead such as "firstMergeModule" and it actually works. However, I believe that the author must have a reason for combining the module Id and its GUID to form the merge Id to be used in the main source file inorder to reference the newly added merge module. Anyone has a clue regarding why the author used such an Id combination?
