Hi

I have a simple problem..

I am deploying a component that relies on a 3rd party installation 
runtime (think Msoft Wse3 runtime or DirectX runtime).  I want the 
installer to check that this pre-requisite is installed and if not 
execute the  prereq instal file before my installation invokes

I have added the installation file as a component under my source 
directory, and created a feature for it.  Obviously this just copies the 
file onto the system. What i cannot figure out is how to run the 
installation without physically installing it..

I thought about creating a custom action that just ran msiexec on the 
msi?  But assumed there must be a cleaner way for installing a prebuilt 
msi as a prerequisite.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
