I would recommend to start from MSI basics, like http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370561(VS.85).aspx, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372830(VS.85).aspx and http://blogs.msdn.com/robmen/archive/2003/10/04/56479.aspx.
Later on, take a look at this post: http://www.joyofsetup.com/2009/01/01/choosing-your-payloads/.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] compress/de-compress of files Do you mean you're installing something like a .zip file, and want to unzip it after installing? Why don't you just add each of the files from the zip directly into the WXS, and let the Windows installer handle things? You're not limited to installing stuff under Program Files. >> can you pl. suggest me with some sample script of how to do this? I am new to WIX Project.
