Hello all, its' been a very long time since I checked in here. I've
joyfully had an issue with our installers of late that should be simple
to solve... only I can't solve it.

The situation is this, our clients install many versions of our software
new and old and run them concurrently. We also ship third party drivers
for our dongles, so users have to have a valid license to use our
software. Now the most recent update of this third party install has
raised a weird issue that we haven't seen before. When someone installs
an older version of our software alongside the newest version the older
driver mangles the newer one as I assume it is still attempting to
install it.

I get the version number for this third party software from the registry
using a property, as raw - its' a DWORD in the registry. Now I'm hoping
I can just done some simple comparison like this (on the feature)

<Condition Level="0">DRIVERVERSION >= "7"</Condition>

Sadly this doesn't work as the version number has a hash in it as I got
it as raw, and I think it maybe comparing it as a string anyway. I'm not
sure I can even use a greater than or equal too in a condition like this
anyway. I'm dying here please help!
