Sorry, bad choice of words there. I really should have said "assembly", not "component". The check would be for a third-party assembly, to ensure that the prerequisites for our product our installed before they can run our installer. Sounds like there's nothing there for that right now.

Thanks,
Kevin

When you say "component," are you asking about an MSI component or are
you looking to detect any assembly regardless of how it was installed?
For the former, <ComponentSearch> will do. There isn't a way to detect
assemblies generically -- though if you wanted to write one, I'm sure it
would be appreciated.<g>
