Very cool, thanks! Here's what I think I've settled on (including the
Office 2010 product codes in case anyone stumbles across this conversation
later):
<util:ComponentSearch Guid="0638C49D-BB8B-4CD1-B191-050E8F325736"
Variable="Office12Installed"/>
<util:ComponentSearch Guid="398E906A-826B-48DD-9791-549C649CACE5"
Variable="Office14Installed"/>
<util:ComponentSearch Guid="FAB10E66-B22C-4274-8647-7CA1BA5EF30F"
Variable="Office12PIAInstalled"/>
<util:ComponentSearch Guid="64E2917E-AA13-4CA4-BFFE-EA6EDA3AFCB4"
Variable="Office14PIAInstalled"/>
These will contain the location of the installed components, but I use them
as Install Conditions in the chain like so:
<MsiPackage Name="Prerequisites\o2007pia.msi"
SourceFile="$(var.Prerequisites)Office2007PIARedist\o2007pia.msi"
DisplayInternalUI="yes" Permanent="yes" Visible="yes"
InstallCondition="Office12Installed AND NOT Office12PIAInstalled)" />
Thanks for the pointers guys!
