1. Sorry, should have mentioned groups of groups was only supported in v3.
2. Yep, you are experiencing the magic of "flattening". Just don't make any cycles. <smile/> -----Original Message----- From: Wim Coenen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 27, 2008 18:21 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

I got stuck first because wix 2.0 does not allow this. After upgrading to the latest build of wix 3.0, it works perfectly. I was especially pleased to see that pulling in dependencies through ComponentGroupRef still works even if the dependency graph is a diamond like this: - Feature only references ComponentGroup A - ComponentGroup A references ComponentGroup B and ComponentGroup C - ComponentGroups B references ComponentGroup D - ComponentGroups C references ComponentGroup D This is exactly what I was looking for!
