So your MessageBox displays the name of the property (which is PATH) instead of
C:\Program Files\Product Name, right?
Make sure your property is all upercase (like PATH and not Path or anything
else).

Post your questions on the list pls. There are more chances for you to get help.
I'm not sure about that one, you can use a property for your control and
reference it from your CA to check its value:
Control Id='MyRadioButton' ...Property='ARCHITECTURE'
You can refer ARCHITECTURE within the CA

After re-writing our InstallShield installer in WiX, my team leader would
like a major upgrade to default to the previously installed feature set as
he seen with the IS installer.
Is this something my WiX-based installer should be doing by default and I
simply missed something? Or does it

It should complete. You'll need to find the flags to do it silently but you are
right, there is no guarantee when it will complete or that it will finish if it
encounters an error.

The MigrateFeatureStates action does this. You have to set MigrateFeatures
to 'yes' in the corresponding UpgradeVersion element. I think it will only
work if the features have the same names.

Mike, that certainly does the trick.

Hi, All wix-users,
I was trying to download msival2.exe to check my installer. I went to
microsoft download center a few days ago. I spent a lot of time searching
for Installer SDK for XP. All I could find was Developer SDKs for Vista.
Finally I decided to download (BIG download) and
I downloaded the Windows 2003 Platform SDK from the following link:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A55B6B43-E24F-4EA3-A93E-40C0EC4F68E5displaylang=en
After you installed it, there should be a MsiVal2.Msi under the Bin folder.
Cheers,
Vince

Hi,
I'm currently making an installer that uses multiple external CABs. Features
are disabled depending on which CAB files are in the same directory as the
MSI package. This way, I can have one MSI package and ship different set of
CABs to each clients. So, for each CAB file I search for it in
A.that'll do it.
Thanks.

You can get the same effect from smoke.exe in WiX v3.
