Re: [WiX-users] WixAssignCulture parameter missing

Figured this out. Needed to add the culture to the list in the project properties. Not sure why this didn't come up before, I've reverted to the previous build, and it still happened. -Original Message- From: David Bartmess [mailto:david.bartm...@wallst.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 15,

Re: [WiX-users] RemoveFile Table

my point was that we get an error reported. Does that make this a bug..? Technically, I suppose its arguable, but in my opinion it isn't a bug, especially considering that the WiX documentation states that the name attribute is required. The RemoveFile and RemoveFolder elements are, to all
