Initial Comment:
Hi, i'm working now few days with wix and learned much
about it, but now i have a problem for that i not found
any solution.

I want to make a Msi-File, that installs a software.
This should installed in the standard folder, but when
i run the msi-file over a commandline with a parameter
behind it, the software should installed in the folder
that i enter over the parameter.

Any idea how to handle that?

LP

This is already possible, see Windows Installer reference.
Use a public property for your installation target folder.

Like this:
    <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
      <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder" Name="PFiles">
        <Directory Id="PFilesCompany" Name="CompanyXXX">
          <Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="ProductYYY">

Then use msiexec.exe /i your-msi.msi INSTALLDIR=...


(Use the users mailinglist next time)

Use public properties (uppercase properties), you can 
override these on the msiexec command-line.
See Windows Installer Reference for details:
