Yes, I did and thanks for the response. I was able to figure it out seeing a response to a question you posted on StackOverflow.com: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2272216/installshield-12-changing-the-destination-of-a-merge-module-at-run-time
I had forgot I could right click on the merge module in InstallShield and set the desired destination: [image: image.png] Again, thanks for the response and keep up the fountain of invaluable information that pours from your blog, SA, and everywhere else you spread it. You should write a book on, "How to extend InstallShield with Wix" I bet you'd see 10,000 copies in the 1st month! You're a God send for developers who have to write their own installers! I might work on a project for 6 months to a year then be required to write an installer for it. I litterally, forget all the InstallShield skills and have to relearn them which sucks by the way.
