What does the RegistryValue code look like? That might help people tell you what's going wrong. If the value you're writing in this RegistryValue is a Property which differs *at run-time* in the 2 MSI's there may not actually be a problem here, it could be expected behaviour.

One of the things I'm trying to do is update a registry value on the patch and it doesn't seem to be working. Anyone have any idea how I go about getting the registry value created on install, updated to a different value on the patch. The patch wxs looks something like this for the patch family, where the RegistryEntries is the reference back to the registry entries that are created (it's just one entry). <PatchFamily Id="ConversionsPatchFamily" Version="$(var.ProductVersion)" Supersede="yes"> <ComponentRef Id="RegistryEntries" /> <ComponentRef Id="MainApp" /> </PatchFamily> Am I doing something wrong here? The value that is being written to the registry is different in both MSIs I'm using to create the patch from. I've searched around but haven't found anything that worked Thanks, Bryce ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
