How can I pre-select the first item in the combo? (I do not now what the
values in the Combo are when creating the WIX file, they are added from a
c++ dll) or is there a way to have my Next button disabled until the user
has selected a value from the combobox?

I disregarded it before, but user is also removed after Version2 is installed.

John,
Take this with a GIANT grain of salt, but I have these notes about embedding
a third party MSI saved off onto my person WiX wiki:

It's a cut and paste from this mailing list I thought might be useful, as is

Thanks for the response.
I added your code but now when I run the install it modifies the extension and
only puts one ad entry in so all the others like asp, aspx, ascx are gone so
nothing works!
How do you get around that problem?
Thanks

I see my mistake. I had mistakenly scheduled the CA after InstallFinalize.
BTW, are there any suggested ways of detecting that a CA has failed and
showing a nice error message to the user instead of 'Error : a program

Hi all:
We are using the latest 2.0 build of wix and are now seeing this bug 80-90%
of the time during installs. Has anybody made any progress in nailing down
these leaked MSI Handles in the sql custom actions?

Did you check heat (or tallow for v2.x) to generate wix for the registration of

I have already one for launching a web site, but I don't know how to do for

You don't need to do anything, Windows Installer will deal with that for yo

I'm having problems with the XmlFile custom action using Wix 3.0 where the

John,
Why the double slashes at the beginning of your element names? Just one
slash...
util:XmlConfig
Id='ADD_SOME_TOC'
Sequence='26001'
Action='create'
On='install'
Name='toc_replaceme'
Node='element'
ElementPath='/plugin/extension'
Based on some information posted elsewhere, it looked like the double slash
might have been necessary. Regardless, it doesn't work with either the single
slash or double slash.
Thanks,
John

Is the xml file part of the same install that tries to modify it? If so you
will probably need some sort of of deferred custom action, as the file will
probably not have been copied over prior to the XmlConfig being run.

I wondered if that was the case as well, but based on looking at the install

This is happening during upgrades much more often than a new install. The
only thing that has changed during our dev cycle has been the length of the
sql scripts that are incorporated into the upgrade process. The file specs
haven't caused us any trouble.
