Adam,

I wouldn't suggest going about it this way. If there is a change to the way
WIX generates the Lib files this could impact you. The XML/Binary format is
not documented short of looking through the code itself.

However, from a built MSI you could use dark.exe to decompile it into WIX
Source.

Thanks,

Brian Rogers
