Does your framework installation use an UpgradeCode? If so, you can use the
UpgradeTable to locate it. Just make sure you put OnlyDetect="yes" on those
entries that set your detection properties.

You can use the Upgrade element several times in your WiX code and the
Upgrade value for each can be different.

Subject: [WiX-users] Product dependencies

Hi,
My product involves two packages. One is a "Framework" package, which
is required by my application. The other one is the application itself.

Now I'd like to model this dependency into my package, especially because
I've already rolled out an older version of the "Framework" and I want to
ensure that it is updated before a new version of my application gets
installed.

I want to make this check as flexible as possible, e.g. Framework version 
1.6 is installed and I want it to be at least 1.7.x (not caring about the 
exakt version like 1.7.2).

My product ID is generated, so I can't use a fixed search in ...\Uninstall 
registry hive (at least I think so).

thanks for your help!
Markus
