Would it work if the Wix.targets used the new syntax to set the WixToolPath property like so: <PropertyGroup> <WixToolPath>$(Registry:SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Installer xml\...@installroot)</WixToolPath> </PropertyGroup> instead of using an initial target that sets the property using ReadRegistry. - Kim -- *Kim Gybels Software Developer * kim.gyb...@metris.com <mailto:kim.gyb...@metris.com> Tel: +32 16 74 01 01 Fax: +32 16 74 01 02 * Metris Europe * Interleuvenlaan 86 3001 Leuven Belgium www.metris.com <http://www.metris.com/> This message and any attachment are privileged, confidential and contain private information.
