But the easiest solution is to include a boolean registry entry in the component itself; so write a "1" DWORD registry entry in one component and "0" in the other. Then use RegistrySearch to load that value. Otherwise you can use a custom action to set another property to explicit values, rather than relying on RegistrySearch on a "null" value. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [WiX-users] Conditional services install
Hi Bob, thats exactly what I've done but no effect. I guess there is a problem with property SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN. This property is connected to check box so if I unselect this check box this property become undefined and value written into the registry is binary value with zero length. But during uninstall it become defined with null value thought. So how to store property value into registry to undef that property when is its value read ? Another pieces of my WiX code: Any ideas ?

[WiX-users] Conditional services install
Hi, I'm trying to make installation with 1 or 2 services (depends on user choices). I have following components: (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "superserver") AND (SERVERAUTORUN) AND (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN <> "1") (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "superserver") AND ((NOT SERVERAUTORUN) OR (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN = "1")) (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "classicserver") AND (SERVERAUTORUN) AND (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN <> "1") (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "classicserver") AND ((NOT SERVERAUTORUN) OR (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN = "1")) (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "superserver") AND (SERVERAUTORUN) AND (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN = "1") (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "superserver") AND (NOT SERVERAUTORUN) AND (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN = "1") (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "classicserver") AND (SERVERAUTORUN) AND (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN = "1") (SERVERRUNAS = "service") AND (SERVERTYPE = "classicserver") AND (NOT SERVERAUTORUN) AND (SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN = "1") Installation of these services is all ok and unistall too - but only when I don't make any changes in standard property values. When I don't want to install Guardian (so SERVICEUSEGUARDIAN isn't set) installation works but unistall leave service alive (no uninstallation uccurs). Anybody have idea what i'm doing wrong ?
