Uhh, do I understand correctly that you want to install the Merge Modules where they say they can't be installed?

Problem is the mergemodules have a condition VersionNT <= 500 or Version9X, this is a problem because we need the mergemodules to install on Windows2000. Now making our application not dependent on them is not an option, and the merge-modules install just fine standalone via the MS installer but as I said we want them in our MSI package. Editing out the conditionals with ORCA seems to break the upgrade/backwards compatibility of the merge-modules ("Cannot update the systemfile C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech\sapi.cpl with Windows Installer because the file is protected by Windows"). So I'm a bit at a loss here, how to get those merge-modules to install even though they have a VersionNT <= 500 condition. I'm starting to think putting the MS installer into our bootloader would be better. _________________________________________________________________ More photos, more messages, more storage-get 2GB with Windows Live Hotmail. http://imagine-windowslive.com/hotmail/?locale=en-us&ocid=TXT_TAGHM_migration_HM_mini_2G_0507 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
