The .csproj in the wixext directory embeds the .wixlib as a resource: <EmbeddedResource Include="$(OutputPath)ui.wixlib"> <Link>Data\ui.wixlib</Link> </EmbeddedResource> The .wixlib has the .wixobj and .dll files for setup authoring and custom actions. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
