Hi David,

You can use WISubStg.vbs:

WISubStg.vbs "full path to msi" "full path to mst" TransformName

Command line for msiexec:

Msiexec /I "full path to msi" TRANSFORMS=:TransformName

At the very end of
http://blogs.technet.com/alexshev/archive/2008/02/15/from-msi-to-wix-part-7-
customizing-installation-using-transforms.aspx there is small script to
embed mst programmatically using script also.

Subject: [WiX-users] How to embed a transform and use during install?

I've got a transform that brands the client's installer and output to the
correct images and names, and I've seen in other blogs that I can use the
"TRANSFORMS=:TransformName" on the command line to use an embedded transform
file, but I can't seem to get it to work.

How do I need to do the embedding? I've tried <Binary> and <File>, but
neither seems to work, as the installation using the syntax above fails on a
"failed to find transform file" type of error message.

Thanks for any help!
