VBScript is pretty straightforward.
Dim installer = CreateObject("WindowsInstaller.Installer")
And then
Installer.InstallProduct (path to msi, property list etc)
for each one.
I suspect PowerShell has similar capabilities.

When calling another process from within a batch file that you want to waiting
merely add 'call' in front of it. I do this to utilize multiple batch files
with one call.

Have a look at the Start command (help start) which can be used to start and
wait in batch files.

Subject: [WiX-users] Using a batch file (or something else?) do deploy multiple
MSI files.
I am working through deploying our software for automated testing and appear to
have encountered an issue that I am not quite sure what the best way is to
solve.
I need to deploy multiple MSI files, my initial thought was that I could do
this with a batch file, but apparently, the process of running the MSI starts a
new process and the batch file continues, so all of the installers after the
first one fails. The order of install doesn't matter in my case. I was using
PSExec to start the MSIs remotely (both directly and via a batch file).
Anyone have any ideas as far as what the best way to do this would be?
