Hmm, this is interesting....

I created a small VB6 app that used the MS Flex Grid. This means it needs the 
MSFLXGRD.MSM in the setup.

Using WIX my installed test app failed because MSFLXGRD.OCX was missing a 
dependency.

However, if I add

      <EnsureTable Id='Class'/>

In my wix source file and recompile everything works.

Can anyone tell me why?

Thanks

Subject: [WiX-users] Installing MSCOMCTL.MSM

Hi,

I am trying to convert an older VS2010 setup project to Wix. There are several 
COM dlls I have had to use harvest on to get their registry information from. I 
also have a few merge modules. One of them is MSCOMCTL.MSM. I see from examples 
I just need to include the <MERGE> element under the <Directory> and also 
<MergeRef> in the <Feature>.

Everything compiles ok and I can run the msi ok. When I run the installed app I 
get an error saying that MSCOMCTL was not installed properly or one of its 
dependants is missing.

I have noticed the MSM contains one file, an ocx. Do I need to run harvest on 
this also, or will the MSM take care of the com registration for me?

Thanks
Graham Allwood
