Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Question about conditional statements in elements Huh, I just noticed that my explanation directly contradicts the behaviour you're seeing, so...either I'm wrong, or there might be something flaky going on in your installer.

Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Question about conditional statements in elements As far as I understand it, "Installed" means, "Before this installer was run, a version of this program was already installed on this machine". Someone please correct me if that isn't quite true. As far as &ftDatabase=3, I have no idea, I haven't yet seen that syntax yet.

I've been deciphering it fine except for a few things. In this project I have the following element: <Show Dialog="WelcomeDlg" Before="ProgressDlg">NOT Installed</Show> The question with this is the "NOT Installed" condition. What exactly does "Installed" mean? When I run this to upgrade and already installed application this dialog still shows up. SO, I'm not sure what Installed really means (there is also an Upgrade element in the project with a property assigned to it that is used in other controls throughout the project). Next is the following syntax that I have in several control conditional statements: &ftDatabase=3 The ftDatabase is the ID of one of the Features. However, I don't know what value it would have. Is this an install level value or install type value?
