The major difference is that it doesn't contain everything a complete package holds so that the component can't be installed by the Installer just by using the merge module. The merge module contains the tables and binary information used by the component that, when added to a full package, make it possible for that package to install the component. Merge modules are delivered as files with the extension .msm, but the internal structure of these files is the same as for regular .msi Installer packages. That means that you can use the same tools for editing merge modules that you use for editing Installer packages. You can also merge 2 merge modules into a package - http://www.msigeek.com/merging-merge-module-contents-to-an-msi/ Cheers' Vijay Raj | ESD - IT Services, Texas Instruments Weblog<http://www.vijayraj.info/> | RSS Feed<http://feeds.feedburner.com/msigeek> | Twitter<http://twitter.com/msigeek> -----Original Message----- From: BSR PHANI [mailto:bsrphani...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 11:30 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Merge modules hi, can any one explains me, how merge modules will work?
