I sometimes suggest things from the top of my head but this I actually tried to
compile and link. And for Wix2.0.5325.0 it works. What version are you using?
You can leave out <![CDATA[ and ]]> stuff as long as your condition doesn't use
< or > as the expression. I picked it up as a best practice.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] GDI+ MergeModule
I put the condition under the component. Assume that is okay? However, I'm
having problems with the condition.. candle.exe won't eat it. Here is what I
use:
<Component Guid="{..}" Id="C_GDI">
<Condition>
<![CDATA[(VersionNT=500) Or (NOT Version9X="") ]]>
</Condition>
<File DiskId="1" Id="id1893" KeyPath="yes" Name="gdiplus.dll" Vital="yes"
src="gdiplus.dll" />
</Component>
And the error I get from candle is:
candle.exe : error CNDL0001 : Cannot have ']]>' inside an XML CDATA block.
Any clues?
Best regards.
