Hi, One way would be to add Registry serach and assign the registry serach result to a property. Later you can use the property based on its value to check whether DB2 installed on the target machine or not.
e.g To check IIS is installed or not <!--Search for the IIS 6 version--> <Property Id="IIS6SPLEVEL"> <RegistrySearch Id='IISCheck' Type='raw' Root='HKLM' Key='SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters' Name='MajorVersion' /> </Property> <Condition Message='$(loc.RequiredIIS6OrAbove)'> Installed OR (IIS6SPLEVEL >= "#6" AND NOT Installed) </Condition> Hope this helps...
