We use the Inno installer for a different product and it has no problem with 
this version numbering system, it however has file version and product version 
fields...

The file version field is constrained but the product version field is not...


Later, Rod

Correct me if I am wrong, but the VERSIONINFO resource can't handle numbers 
larger than that.

Subject: [WiX-users] I need to use Product Version Build numbers larger then

The product version number I have to use has the following form:

3.5.6.257832 obviously the candle compiler doesn't like this; is there any way 
to suppress the error or to work around this limitation?

If I can't find a solution to this problem we are going to have to abandon WIX 
in favor of a solution that will allow build numbers larger than 65K.


Thanks, Rod
