David:

Check out tallow (it's packaged along with WiX 2.0), it works wonders.  You can process directories, .reg files, com components.  If you are using v3.0, heat is probably the tool you are looking for.

Is there an equivalent in WiX to Visual Studio 2003's web deployment project? In other words, a simple way of adding all the .ascx, .config, .jpg etc files to my MSI without having to hand-code each individual entry? VS can take the output from a project, and build an MSI from that; I don't see an obvious way to do it in WiX. I've had no problem with WiX for packaging Windows services, since the file counts are relatively low; but my web application contains hundreds of files, and is under constant development, so there must be some way of automating things.
