The root problem is I need info from Microsoft on what to look for to see if
the 3 hotfixes need to be installed. There is no information as to what
registry settings or ??? to look for.
Also, the actual install files are not on Microsoft's website so they must
always be copied to the directory the bootstrapper is in - so no optional
download.
thanks - dave

David,
After fishing around I was able to build a custom bootstrap for the
prerequsites I need which is not part of VS 2005.
What kind of problem are you having, maybe I can help?
Cheers,
Aaron

It is not documented and no one seems to know how to use it. I have
spent so much time talking to MS techs on this I think it would have been less
of my time just to write my own bootstrapper - and I still don't have a
solution. And this is for http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908002 which is
supposedly all set up to use as a pre-req.
good luck - dave

Subject: [WiX-users] More on GenerateBootstrapper task
Someone might have already asked this question, but I don't think
anyone really answered it. For the BootstrapperFile element, where do I find
all prerequisites values I can use inside of the Include attribute? I'm really
interested in follow prerequisites: .NET 3.0, ReportViewer, and ADAM.
I would like to generate a bootstrapper using the GenerateBootstrapper
task, but I want to ship with all the prerequisites with my package. In
deployment environment, during an install the machine will not have Internet
access. If someone can show me an example how to accomplish this or point me
to the right direction would be great.
Thanx,
Aaron
