Thanks, I think I will just use the SelfRegCost for now. I am trying to register DLL's that would be found on the target machine in their system folder, would you have any idea how I would achieve this?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Registering DLL's properly I use heat as a starting point and then clean up the output. SelfRegCost works ok but it calls DllRegisterServer/DllUnRegisterServer which means it can be uncontrolled as you don't know what is happening in those functions, as a replacement for your CA it should be identical. It should work on 64 bit machines. Neil >Is that using heat? Do you know what problems would occur if any using >the second method? And how these would work on 64 bit machines?
