Well, after much goofing around, I think UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE check is working for what I need. My design is wrong from the start to re-order removal of existing products... but I will design the next installer with this method in mind.
Thanks so much for your help Blair... and the great explanation. and thanks again to the rest of the group for helping in general - this would be all but impossible without this forum.
