Yes, create the UI in a custom bootstrapper. The separation is: data collection goes in the bootstrapper; modifying system state goes in the MSIs.

To achieve it, should I have to create my own wixstdba? I ask this because I need a UI with many pages, each one customized, so I cannot re-use the standard one. Does it make sense to do all the UI in the bootstrapper? then have the main MSI just installing the program files, and executing a few custom actions. I wonder where would be the logical limit, of what writing in the BA and what writing in the main MSI, like executing a "thankyou" page when installation is complete (bootstrapper, or MSI custom action?) Thanks up2date.c ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
