heat.exe doesn't support this out of the box - it was designed to encourage the best practice, which is "one file - one component". However, you can apply an XSL transform to the heat output and change it the way you need. You can also take a look at the Paraffin tool ( http://www.wintellect.com/CS/blogs/jrobbins/archive/2007/10/21/wix-a-better-tallow-paraffin.aspx), created by John Robbins some time ago - it has a switch to support your scenario. However, I've never tried it myself.
