Absolutely possible. Wouldn't be much fun if all files on installation media had to be in the same folder. Wouldn't even work for files with the same names that should go into different subfolders like you are asking about.
On your hard drive just set up the folders the way you ultimately want them and then run Heat.exe against this folder and it will create a WiX output sample that you could then merge into your project. But, yes, totally possible. I'd call it the "norm". -----Original Message----- From: Tomasz Grobelny [mailto:tom...@grobelny.oswiecenia.net] Sent: Monday, November 14, 2011 12:44 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
