Hi, There is still one more problem. I thought if I change the install execute sequence in the target msi, that will be picked up by the msp. However when I drop the msp on the base msi in Orca tool I do not see any change in the install sequence.
All the new components that I have added, modified seem to be there in the tables - basically I can see all other changes that I have made in the patch except for the install execute sequence change. Can you please provide some idea as to what might be happening here?
