Could you please send a simple example of how to obtain the property "ProductCode"? There is no properties collection for the session object or it's child database object. I didn't think you could access the database tables from a deferred custom action?
Please help, I'm very stuck. Thanks Simon -----Original Message----- From: Bob Arnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 November 2008 06:17 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

See the MsiGetProductProperty function in the MSI SDK. Just use the [] indexer to get "normal" properties. -- 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 -- This e-mail is confidential and the information contained in it may be privileged.
