Windows Installer doesn't work that way.

Hi All,

I have a scenario where I need to take

Backup of already existing files.
Remove the files.
Copy new files into the above location.
Copy back only the Web.Config file from the backup location.

I have written seperate components for each step in WIX .wxs file.
When I am trying to run the MSI, the components are not running in the order
required. First the files are getting removed, then the backup step is
comming into play, and running into errors as the files were already removed
from the backup location.

Is there a way in WIX through which I can control the order.

Thanks in advance,
Madhavi.
