A BA is code in your control that interacts with the engine. As such, you have
full control over the UI and full control over the process. As for WixStdBA,
it's a lean and mean BA, so it doesn't have a lot of the feature rich

Look through the log files to see why the uninstall for the msi's didn't go

detailing the actions of each MSI.

I've got several database projects that are ties to each other. I've added the
appropriate references and edited the SQL Command variables to reflect the
database names. The projects build with no issues but at install time I get
the following error in my install log.

To clarify when I have two components with the same INF file, but different

If you are the author of the MSI, then why not set the condition up properly in
the first place? You can condition your actions based on a property, and then
in your immediate CA you can modify the value of your property so your install
takes the appropriate action.

You can use orca to open and edit the msi.
You can change the condition of it as well.

I am looking for a way to open the msi database, check and see if a specific

modify the Condition statement related to that action. I have been
considering doing this either at compile time but am concerned about the

I would guess you're updating a primary key in the database since that's
usually why it fails. But yeah - modifying tables is a lot of trial & error.
Unfortunately the old code I wrote is long gone and in C++. I couldn't access
it anymore if I wanted to.

I am using Wix 3.8. I had trouble finding where on my PC the standard themes
were extracted to. I got one of the wix38 zip files and found it in there.
I have added above my themefile and wxs file.
Where are I suppose to get my theme file from?
Where does HideWhenDisabled="yes" go?

It sounds like your dev system is pretty out of shape. If you installed VS
after WIX then you have to completely uninstall WIX and reinstall WIX. A
repair will not fix it.
Best of luck

What Theme file did you start with? And what version of Wix are you using? It
does look like you are missing the HideWhenDisabled="yes", and it almost looks
like you are using a new theme file with an older version of Wix.

I thought with my original post I did post an image. In any case here is the
same one again.
You can see here "Version [WixBundleVersion]" this is not here and you can
see from my theme it is not here for this page.
This is just an example of the problem. I see more on other pages as well.

Can you identify what element is a phantom element? Are you using a transparent

I have used heat.exe in Wix 3.7 and Wix 3.8, so I don't follow your comments.
