We have a very large wix project and we would like to break it apart. One of 
the things we would like to do is move several of our <Binary> element to a 
fragment but we can't seem to figure out how to make it work.

We have something like define in the master.wxs file:

    <Binary Id="WixUI_Bmp_Dialog" SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\side_panel.bmp" 
/>
    <Binary Id="WixUI_Bmp_Banner" 
SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\WizardHeader.bmp" />
    <Binary Id="WixUI_Bmp_BannerJpn" 
SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\WizardHeaderJpn.bmp" />
    <Binary Id="WixUI_Bmp_Footer" 
SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\WizardFooter.bmp" />

    <Binary Id="FirstProgressBMP" 
SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\1_awards12_A.bmp" />
    <Binary Id="SecondProgressBMP" 
SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\2_awards12_B.bmp" />
    <Binary Id="ThirdProgressBMP" 
SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\3_awards12_C.bmp" />
    <Binary Id="FourthProgressBMP" 
SourceFile="$(var.MEDIAPATH)\4_awards12_D.bmp" />

So we tried simply to move these definition into a new file and wrapped them 
with a <Fragment> element.

When we built the project the project didn't complain but the binaries weren't 
in the binaries table.

So, we then tried to reference these elements using <BinaryRef> and 
<FragmentRef> but we got error instead.

What is the right way to reference these Binary elements in the master.wxs file?

Thanks.
