You are correct: ProductSearch does have an UpgradeCode too, I am using wix
3.8 and the documentation of 3.8 doesn't make reference to the UpgradeCode.
I will try using 3.9.

I will also investigate (learn)  what you mean by implementing code in the
ba (???) for the OnDetect handlers.

Thanks for your input, 
Marc

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Two Mutually Exclusive Products

I'm a little confused by the comment about ProductSearch, sorry.

- ProductSearch: requires a product code which I cannot use

The wix:ProductSearch for use in authoring an MSI takes
ProductSearch/@UpgradeCode as the input.

The util:ProductSearch for use in a bundle takes either a ProductCode or an
UpgradeCode (which I think was added in wix 3.9 ).

I use a bundle driven msi(s) method and so in a similar situation where I
have mutually exclusive 'products' (suites of products).  In my situation
rather than use a bal:Condition, I implement code in the ba, which is called
in the OnDetectXxx handlers to determine if I need to communicate with the
user and terminate the setup.
