I thought I would find this answer in the archives but did not.
 
What is the best way to move an existing application that is deployed in the field via VS.NET 2003 installer project to a WiX based deployment?
 
Major upgrade is a given but what has to be authored on the Wix side to get it to upgrade an install that was built by something totally different (my assumption is that using the same upgradecode as is in the VS.NET 2003 installer isn't the answer and that the answer may be somewhat complicated).
 
Some info about the VS.NET 2003 installer:
1.  It was built using the VS.NET 2003 setup project (no special other stuff outside what VS.NET IDE supports).
2.  It has merge modules within the setup project that were also built in VS.NET.
