It's two packages in the same package group with a modified install condition (essentially "FoundRedistExe" and "NOT FoundRedistExe").

The issue I take with that is it means everyone's creating package group authoring for .NET. Lots of people do that today and get it wrong. And trust me, the right detect and install conditions are only getting harder. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-devs mailing list WiX-devs@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-devs
