Please don't do it that way. As written, you don't handle rollback or uninstall. Folks from the Visual Studio and WiX teams spent a lot of time to get that behavior right. You can't change how .NET treats assemblies with the same strong name but having the option to not fail on an uninstall is a reasonable feature request. Please file it and we can take a look at adding it. -- sig://boB http://bobs.org
