No, because you can't run multiple installations simultaneously, so it's not possible from within a custom action. You need to provide a standalone .exe chainer/bootstrapper to handle it. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[WiX-users] How to automate download and install feature in WIX?
Hi, I have written a Custom Action DLL using Visual C++. MSI will take the user to the download page of the software if the particular software is not installed in the user machine while installing the MSI. Is it possible to download and install the particular software in microsoft download center without user intervention using WIX (Custom Action). If yes, kindly guide me how to go about this feature. Thanks, Naresh Krishna Kumar.
