Please uninstall [ProductName] from Add-Remove Programs and reinstall."><![CDATA[TEST=""]]></Condition> Now this works fine if I install, however, when I go to uninstall it won't let me unless I remove the registry key. I think this is down to the condition I am using. This is what I am trying to get to so it shows what I have done. Install as normal. Reinstall, detect and give message please use add remove etc Uninstall as normal I have tried variuous flavours of TEST = <> "" etc I have Tried using REINSTALL <> = "" etc and also using REMOVE <> = "ALL" etc, obviously these have not been as written, and I think it may just be the sequencing I am getting wrong. Any thoughts would be helpful as I have now run out. Joe ______________________________________________________________________ You might be interested in this...
