Hey Rick, Isn't it possible Windows Installer is determining the file version is different from what was installed and not uninstalling it?

In InstallShield Express 2009, go to the Files pane, right click on a file in the lower right quadrant, choose Properties, select the Advanced tab, and see if the Permanent and/or Shared check boxes are marked. If so, that's the reason they're not getting uninstalled. Whether or not you can safely change these settings depends of course on the app and which files we're talking about. For example, you probably would not want to uninstall the user's database files that they may have updated. -Rick _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/01fe01c9a8e6$ebe64150$c3b2c3...@com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
