You should still be able to use the Variable element with the variable being placed with [Variable], but I haven't tested this and don't have time right now for a test to give you a better example.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] SqlExpress Exepackage InstallCommand ConfigurationFile It doesn't help. Here it is ExePackage Element and I'm trying to execute something similar to command line installation. For example, in cmd.exe we can do: *SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe /ConfigurationFile=c:\SomePath\SomeConfigFile.ini* This is very simple passing of commandline installation arguments. How do we achieve this in Burn bundle installation ? Note: The '*SomeConfigFile.ini ' *must be embedded in the bundle.
