Thanks again, Bob. Regarding that undefined behavior, what I'm seeing is that candle warnings about component id length are becoming errors reported by light as duplicate component ids. They are duplicate components because in the wixobj file the id fields are empty. At least that is my current hunch based on the clues.
Thanks again for the insights!

Then truncate as 72 and you'll get duplicate ID errors rather than something that might or might not work. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
