Firstly to launch an msi you would need to use msiexec ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/227091) you cannot call an msi directly as it is not an executable.
However in your case this will not be possible as you are in a msi transaction already and won't be able to start a new one. You will need to use a bootstrapper to launch the two msi's one after the other. Take a look at Burn the Wix bootstrapper http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/authoring_bundle_intro.htm *Richard Mayes* ***Blog:* http://blog.slinkysoftware.com *Twitter:* http://twitter.com/caveman_dick On 18 May 2012 09:17, Vivek Soni <vivek.s...@brisetech.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I created a wix installer in which I want to launch an msi after > installation.
