Hi Mat,

thanks for the hint with the tree version numbers. I will try by changing 
the third number.
Just to clarify. I had used in InstallShield pure MSI packages.

Cheers,
  Thomas

The main problem I see here is your versioning scheme.  MSI only supports 
the first three places in the version number (X.X.X) and ignores the 
fourth position.  Any version changes need to take place in the first 
three positions for MSI to recognize a version change.  For more 
information please refer to the MSI, and Microsoft, documentation on 
versions and use of versioning.

You cannot compare what you do in legacy InstallShield (InstallScript) and 
MSI as they are two different install engines.  InstallScript based 
installs use all four places in the version when it does version compares. 
 When moving from InstallScript to MSI (WIX), or any install engine for 
that matter, you must be aware of the behavior differences and adjust your 
development rules accordingly.
