Please send questions to the wix-users mailng list.

It takes a small bit of work to go from WiX v2 to WiX v3 but it takes a lot 
more work to go from WiX v3 back to WiX v2.  Also, the .wxlibs from WiX v2 are 
not likely to work in WiX v3.

The WiX v3 CustomActions do not yet have any of the bug fixes from the last 5 
months and have some known bugs in them.  I hope to have the code bases mostly 
in sync by the end of next week (taking a bit of work to get everything 
together).

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] SqlString works but SqlScript bombs in WiX v3.0?

Hey Rob,
I'm having the same problem Nicholas is having.  I've tried porting it over to 
version 2.0 but I noticed that the "Publish" element doesn't have the 'Dialog' 
and 'Control' attributes.  In my installation I'm referencing 
WixUI_FeatureTree, and have also included a few custom dialogs.  In order to 
include them in my install I need to modify the ControlEvent table for the Back 
and Next buttons.   This was easy to do with the publish element in 3.0 but not 
2.0, since it doesn't have the additional attributes.  To get around this, in 
my 3.0 project, I tried to replace WixSqlExtension with the 2.0 library 
sca.wixlib but could not get it to work.
So I guess my question is, can 2.0 elements be used in a 3.0 project?
Are there any better solutions?
In my 2.0 project I've considered recreating the dialogs whose ControlEvents I 
needed to modify, but I'm trying to keep my wxs file small as possible.
Thanks,
Bill
