Re: [WiX-users] Adding multiple entries in add/remove programs

It may be that features are what you could use. If each component is in its own feature then users can go to the single entry in Add/Remove and choose to add or remove each feature. Phil Wilson -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stefan

Re: [WiX-users] Using XmlFile to update an existing attribute

I have to correct my statement. [] also can be an indexer. But it should be used very carefully. It is much cleaner to see [] a predicate and [position()=2] for example is better choice for such indexed location. However, MSXML 3.0 does not support position() function as will be shown below.
