For your problem, it looks like a sequence problem (order of action) see Rob response and there: http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson3.php. But it seem to me you have taken the problem by the bad side. Did you look to the Installed property? With it, I think you could reverse your implementation logic and simplify your setup. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
