Hi,
 
I wish to create an msi installer using wix such that most of the application 
files will be embedded into the msi  (in the usual way ). However, due to our 
build process, I wish certain parts of the installation to be taken from a 
folder relative to the msi. So after creation of the msi, I hope to create a 
distribution containing the following:
 
myproduct.msi
dir1/
  file1_1
  file1_2
dirn/
  filen_1
  filen_2
 
most of the application will be embedded in the msi CAB file but I also want to 
install files from (dir1...dirn). How do I specify this using Wix because:
 
<Media Id="1" Cabinet="Product.cab" EmbedCab="yes"/>
 
Will mean that all the File elements will be embedded into the cab. Basically I 
wish to have “special” file elements that are to be installed but are not taken 
from the embedded CAB file. 
 
any help is appreciated
