Bob,
thanks for the reply, I see that I am able to remove the item by changing
my feature to be shown, but then using the Remove event as you mentioned
in your blog.
However, I'm wondering if it's possible to remove the feature completely?
Is there some event I can call to remove the feature f

Hi,
Is there any way to restore SQL db from backup file by using SqlScript as
below?
Using SqlFileSpec for data and SqlLogFileSpec for log file elements were
also not successful.
It's not that odd - MSI 4.5 has this kind of thing.

I think a DLL is probably the best way to handle most custom actions. I'm
fairly sure the 32-bit
version would work fine under Win64. You could always create a DLL that does
nothing too difficult
and give it a quick test.

From a previous post:
"You could put a Condition element under the Product element like this:
RUNFROMEXE = 1
When you call msiexec from the exe be sure to pass RUNFROMEXE=1 as an argument.
Double-clicking the MSI file obviously won't provide this argument, and so the
launch condition will
fail."
One of the things required for Windows Installer to put an entry in the
