There's nothing about the underlying Upgrade table in the MSI file that
prevents one product from upgrading several.

Subject: [WiX-users] Question on multiple targets for "Upgrade ID"?

Hi all. I'm hoping someone here can answer this- A quick summary:

The company for which I work had a suite of products that were widely
distributed with their own individual MSIs- each with a unique Upgrade Code
(i.e. Product1 w/UpgradeCode1, Product2 w/UpgradeCode2, Product3
w/UpgradeCode3.

They now are bundling all three of these individual products into a new
single product suite. They would like to have this new "suite" MSI search
for and replace ALL of the earlier individual product MSIs it finds.

I have created an MSI that will take an Upgrade ID="{GUID}" and will find
and replace a *single* product, but I need this to find/remove all three
products before proceeding with the suite install. Is this even possible?

Thanks in advance for any insight you folks can offer!

Vern
