Tina:

Take a look at the IgnoreModularization tag.  You define it in the merge module wxs file.
(<IgnoreModularization Name="PATCHFOUND" Type="Property" />)

I have a case where my merge modules need to tell if they are running in an upgrade, or a fresh install.  I have a property that is getting set in my main install to indicate that an upgrade is occurring.  I thought that I could then just use that property in my merge modules to condition actions to run during an upgrade or not.  However, whenever I build my merge module, the property name in my condition in my merge module always gets postfixed with the merge module's Package Id.  For example, I have the following custom action being called in my InstallExecuteSequence:
                  <Custom Action ="hello" After = "FindRelatedProducts">NOT PATCHFOUND></ Custom>
 
However, after i've compiled and linked my merge module, if i view the MSM using Orca, the condition becomes:
                 NOT PATCHFOUND.4C8C0BBC_B22A_4779_BC25_143C28598F7D
 
Is there any way for a merge module to use the properties defined in the main install?
 
Thanks!
