Hello All.

Considering using WiX to build an installation system for a clients product.
However their file set can change quite dramatically depending on the customer 
for whom the installation is meant for - installs are specific to a customer.
They propose to manage this by simply copying only the customer specific folder 
data to the 'installation file set' and then building the install image.
There can be hundreds of files per customer and many customers world wide - so 
an "installation system" per customer is not practical either.
Okay so every file for every customer could be included but there is a risk 
that it exposes the customer base - one customer could install files specific 
to another customer.

Can WiX support wildcards to allow 'inclusion of a folder / its subfolders'?  
My guess is not from reading the tutorials - every file has to be given a 
unique xml entry and guid?

Best regards

Mr. Gareth Williams
