Hi Rob- Does Votive currently have the ability to do this? What would be nice for me is a merge module project with a set of wxl files that ultimately generate a single MSM with all of the transforms embedded. Another question, academic at this point since I currently consume my merge modules with InstallShield, can WiX consume multilanguage merge modules and end up with a multilanguage MSI that contains an aggregated set of language transforms? Then of course, will burn have a capability of seeing these embedded transforms and give the user a choice of which one to use? With my limited knowledge of MSI and Localization, I'm guessing this is how things would work and what I would need. Please feel free to correct any misconceptions. Thanks, Chris

You build the different languages of the Merge Modules and create transforms. Candle, light, torch should be able to help there.

I found a reference to this in the SDK but when I try to do it in InstallShield it complains that Merge Module Projects don't support it. I think this is an InstallShield bug/limitation and I'm trying to figure out how to make it work in WiX. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa369826(VS.85).aspx ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
