File sequences don't matter in this instance. The problem is that assemblies aren't installed to the GAC until the install is being committed. (MSI hands that off to the Fusion subsystem.) ServiceControl must be in the installation transaction so it can't start a service being installed to the GAC. You'd need a custom action to start such a service. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
