The question was really what is the correct syntax for "variable not equal to empty string" when used with DetectCondition? (I don't think the syntax for this is documented so will add it when I know the correct syntax.)
Some options: Variable <> "" Variable != "" Variable NOT Variable = "" Or something else.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] ExePackage/@DetectCondition syntax You want DetectCondition. InstallCondition says whether a package should be installed on the machine. If false and the package is installed, it will uninstall the package.
