Thank you so much Neil! That worked! Ahh, it feels so good to be over that hurtle. :) Thank you Brian for all of your input as well.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Votive withWix3.0.5120.0doesn'trecognizeWixComplusExtentions.dll I have just built a COM+ sample and it works ok, these are the steps: 1. Create a new wixproj 2. Click "References" and add WixComPlusExtension. 3. Add this to your wxs file: <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; xmlns:complus="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/ComPlusExtension";> 4. Add your com+ code, e.g.: <complus:ComPlusApplication Id="LogEvnt" Name="My COM+ Application"> <complus:ComPlusAssembly Id="MyComPlusAssembly" Type="native" DllPath="[#LogEvnt_dll]"> <complus:ComPlusComponent Id="LogEvnt" CLSID="42FE2960-CA74-4DC7-BAEF-25AF03BC5F67" /> </complus:ComPlusAssembly> <complus:ComPlusApplicationRole Id="Role" Name="My Role" /> </complus:ComPlusApplication> 5. Build the project. I think the problem is that you are adding "http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/WixComPlusExtension"; and it should be " http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/ComPlusExtension";. I hope this helps. Neil -----Original Message----- From: MacDiarmid, James D [mailto:james.macdiar...@eds.com] Sent: 17 June 2009 20:04 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Votive with Wix3.0.5120.0doesn'trecognizeWixComplusExtentions.dll Ok.. This is what I tried. Added: -ext WixComPlusExtension to both the compiler and linker text boxes in the project settings. Kept the xmlns:complus="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/WixComPlusExtension"; and downloaded the Wix Source files, then copied the Pubca.xsd to the schemas/xml folder. Tried to rebuild the installer and still get the old error: The File element contains an unhandled extension element 'complus:ComPlusApplication'. Please ensure that the extension for elements in the 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/WixComPlusExtension' namespace has been provided. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Rogers [mailto:rogers.br...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2009 1:41 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
