Hi, I have a new version of our product (version2) for which I created a new WIX 3.0 installer. The previous installer for version1 was created with an unknown old installer program. It is an msi though so I can open it in Orca to view product & upgrade Ids etc. I can also see that the features and feature components are structured different to what I have. These features are now not needed in the new WIX installer.
Is this classed as a 'Major Upgrade' or Whats the general accepted strategy for moving to WIX installer in this situation? Im puzzled what to do in terms of productIDs, packageIDs and upgrade codes. Similar situation to this : http://www.mail-archive.com/wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg01097.html but wanted to make sure it was the right way to do it. If I have to remove the old version, is it possible to create a custom action in the new WIX installer to first detect old version is on the system and button below that to remove it? Just to make it elegant maybe.. thanks very much, _________________________________________________________________ Celebrate a decade of Messenger with free winks, emoticons, display pics, and more. http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/157562755/direct/01/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
