AFAIK, the Express SKUs support both XML IntelliSense and open-with behavior, so it's doable. I'll probably stick with the C# and VB Express SKUs. -- sig://boB http://bobs.org - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Re: [WiX-users] re : votive with visual c# 2005 express edition
FWIW, I like that idea, simply because that's the only VS integration feature I really like to use. I think that's where the big productivity gain comes in with the Intellisense support you get for WiX schema. I usually copy the schema file by hand, but having some MSI support for it would be nice. You also have to associate the WiX extensions with the XML editor, which I also usually do by hand. Anyone who is editing WiX by hand (most of us I assume) and isn't taking advantage of this VS feature is crazy (IMHO). :) Joe K. - Original Message - From: Bob Arnson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Ali-Akber Saifee ; wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 1:54 PM Subject: Re: [WiX-users] re : votive with visual c# 2005 express edition Rob Mensching wrote: Also, Bob, we might consider allowing the Votive MSI install the .xsd's even if we can't install the full plug-in.
