Hi Chris: Several things, There are multiple language directories for multiple versions of the product I'm installing to. Also,m binary files have to be created whilst installing and hence added to the RemoveFiles table. Hope this explains things. Cheers Sean.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] upgrading custom actions to be data driven Before I begin describing how to refactor hard wired custom actions to data driven custom actions, I have to ask: Can your problem be solved using Windows Installer's built-in Condition table? What is unique about your story that requires a custom action in the first place? Christopher Painter, Author of Deployment Engineering Blog Have a hot tip, know a secret or read a really good thread that deserves attention?

In the current implementation of the msi I'm using properties to enable/disable feature visibility. Is there a way to do this from a table given that what was about 30 properties are now going to be entries in a custom table. Or, within my new custom action should I set the relevant column in the feature table. Also, is there a way to make a column in a table the installPath of a component? Any help appreciated. Cheers Sean. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
