Hi Brian, No, I have no idea what that is or where it needs to go. I'm still very green to Wix and Votive. I've been doing search after search on the net and the only examples I've seen in this area say to add a reference to the WixComPlusExtension Dll, which I did as described, and as shown below:
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi" xmlns:complus="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/WixComPlusExtension"> Also in regard to the "-ext", I don't know what that refers to or where it goes. Any direction or advisement you can give is always appreciated. As the saying goes... "Assume I know nothing..." :) Many thanks in advance, Jim -----Original Message----- From: Brian Rogers [mailto:rogers.br...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2009 11:39 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
