[WiX-users] Custom dialog control enable / disable

Hi all, I'm writing my very first installation script using WiX and I'm having some troubles with that. I have my own setup dialog (which sets some properties of database server) and on that dialog I want to enable / disable controls in order of running environment / user choices. So I have a

Re: [WiX-users] Wix Extension useable for 64 and 32 bit products

Hello Rob, Thank you for the answer. 1. I think I need to mark the MSI package as 64 bit. The reasons are: I am doing COM registration, installation to 64 bit folders. In this case probably I cannot go with 32 bit custom actions. Can you please confirm? The installer process will be a 64 bit

[WiX-users] Set property value according to the return value of a custom action

Our installation requires a way to detect whether Visual Studio is currently running. If it is, installation will quit. Since Wix v2 doesn't have a way to detect the running process, what I'm thinking is: 1. Use C# to write a tool named CheckProcess.exe which will return 1 if Visual

Re: [WiX-users] Custom dialog control enable / disable

Hi Stefan Thanks a lot but I've already solved my problem. The problem was between chair and keyboard of course :) I've used VersionNT in wrong way - I took result value like 500 or so but I wanted boolean result (if property is set or not) and that was my problem. Now I have 2 custom actions

[WiX-users] upgradable merge modules
