Thanks...

But at runtime this is moot since users won't have a copy of dark...

Hopefully the feature request will be acted on, since there is a command line 
parameter to do so but it doesn't do anything :(

I ended up NOT compressing the pre reqs and my installs into the bundle exe so 
I have the bundle exe with a Redist directory where the .Exe's and .Msi's 
reside in

Thanks,

Steve

Subject: [WiX-users] How do you extract the files from a bundle - answer

I might be wrong but I think this has been asked a few times but not answered 
(in fact I think there is even a feature request).

Well after writing the code to do this I discovered it already existed in 
"dark":
    "%wix%bin\dark" setup.exe -x .\out

This will extract all the embedded files and user experience data from 
setup.exe to the folder "out".

Hope this is useful.
