Another place to look is in the .Net 2.0 Bootstrapper and the MSBuild GenerateBootstrapper task. With a little help from Google, it is possible to find information on using the 2.0 bootstrapper with any old generic MSI. By referencing the correct "package", one can create a boot strapper that will install prerequisites such as .Net and install the product.
I used to use dotNetInstaller, but have found that the 2.0 bootstrapper generates a more professional looking installer. -Tony -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rob Hamflett Sent: Monday, July 10, 2006 3:42 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] .NET Installation - request for example Try looking at http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/dotNetInstaller.asp Rob X Y wrote: > Hi All, > I am new to Wix and was wondering if there was an example floating out > there that does the following: > > 1.
