hi i have tried upgrading files and it works fine ..after lot of trial and error ..but now im am faced with a new dilema ..i have a text file with some contents and im refering to the file in this way
<File Id="version3.txt" Source="C:\Documents and Settings\abc\Desktop\Version3.txt" ></File> i build this code and "Version3.txt" file is deployed in the required location. ...evrything is fine so far as you can see i am hardcoding the path .now i change the contents of "version3.txt" i.e the text and install the set up again without building the wix code(after uninstalling the setup) . i am using <RemoveExistingProducts Before='InstallInitialize'/> to remove the existing products and the contents are removed. here is the tricky part ... when i install the set up again the "Version3.txt" file is deployed in the required location but its contents are the old one (not the changes that i have made .... does the wix code take current file at a path (the hardcoded path C:\Documents and Settings\abc\Desktop\Version3.txt ) or the file during the build ??? if so then how do i go about this problem ?? is the problem only for text files . im using major upgrade syntax as im adding a few files and upgrading few files. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/upgrade-set-up-using-wix-tp2231323p2231323.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
