Votive was very experimental/unfinished in WiX 2.0 so I would be very careful about re-using v2.0 .wixproj files. They're pretty quick to set up so you may be better off creating new v3.5 ones from scratch to save yourself any issues in future.
There is no specific v3.5 WiX manual, the v3.0 pages apply. However a quick check of the URL will differentiate between v2.0 & v3.0 docs. It is extremely annoying that searches in Google or Bing turn up the v2.0 doc pages before the v3.0 if the v3.0 ones show up at all.

Subject: [WiX-users] WIXproj file schema? Hi, I have to upgrade a number of WIX 2 projects, and we played with Votive some years back and possibly due to that have some project files with .wixproj extension. When opening the solution with VS2010 (after installing Wix 3.5), the conversion wizard advised that the .wixproj files must be opened in the IDE and converted to the latest version before it can be built by MSBuild. Fair enough, but I can't find any reference to what a wixproj file is supposed to look like. Also when starting a search on the wix manual website, the pages that are returned don't specify whether the information is for WIX 2 or 3 or 3.5. Which makes one uncomfortable.... Thanks for any help! Eric T. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
