I am trying to install WIX3 (Wix-3.0.2925.0.msi from Sourceforge), but every time I do the installer tells me that "Votive, the WiX project and editor package for Visual Studio, cannot be installed because Visual Studio Standard Edition or higher is not installed". How ever I have installed Visual Studio 2008 Professional (at least that's what the Help>About says).

After using candle and light to create my english msi, I am creating transforms for 8 foreign languages with msitan.exe. This works fine for non-asian languages. Asian languages have mst's with all characters being question marks... Poking around, I've found many threads about msi 3 not being UTF-8 complient, but there must be some kind of work around....

Getting the GUIDs right is the hardest part of "autogenerating" .wxs files.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Automating the inclusion of a mess of files Neil Have you considered using a variant of Heat to generate the WiX code dynamically? I have done this sort of think in v2 using a tool called mallow (it is a variant of tallow) I think you should find it on the web if you search but if not let me know and I send you a copy. It can scan a folder full of files and generate WiX code and manage the GUIDs for you so it shouldn't break the component rules. I know this sort of thing it considered bad but in the real world we have to consider things like this!
