You can do one of two things:
1) If you're deploying DLLs that you build within your Visual Studio
solution, then you can use the project references to do it. Right mouse
click on your Votive project and click "Add Reference". Then add a Project
Reference to the DLL that you want to deploy

I am using Votive in Visual Studio 2005.
Can anyone tell me how I can configure my WXS file to pick up DLLS to be
deployed (with the tag) from bin\Debug if the build configuration is
set to Debug, and bin\Release if its Release?
Thanks

Hi guys,
Can anyone tell me if there is a simple XML element I can add to my WXS file
to automatically uninstall previous versions of a product, before executing
the install procedure?
I would like the user not to have to go to 'add/remove programs'...
Thanks

are you using code from using dark.exe? think I've seen var $(var.bannerBmp)
when I've decompiled something before... if you just store the banner bitmap in
a subdir called \Bitmaps\bannrbmp.bmp you should be ok
you could also define your own bitmap in wix and reference that instead
Hope
When I try to compile some of the wix 3 ui files, I get errors like

configuration actions in WIX are not as well documented as the rest of
WIX, and I've hit a lot of obstacles when trying to use them. My
current stumbling block wit

Hello,
I was using wix yesterday and some how it started to give me
this error? But I don't use compression anyone have a clue?

We tried to do this with our configuration files.
The issue we faced was that because RemoveExistingProducts came early
on, the old file was removed with the old product, but we wanted it
remain untouched by the installer during an upgrade or if the user
manually uninstalled the application.

The Installed property will tell you if the product is installed or not. So a
Custom Action with a
condition of 'NOT Installed' will only be trigger on install. A condition of
'Installed' is
obviously the opposite to this, but it's also true for repairs and maintenance.
