If you do an admin install from the source and target MSI's, you get the files.

In other words, the 'before' and 'after' copy of files have to exist at the same time in different source directories. That's annoying because then I have to keep old copies of files (multiple gigs in large directory structure) in addition to the copies of these files are already in the previous MSIs. I think I have to make sure that the source paths for files point to the correct directory structures (old vs. new). It would be nice if pyro just fetched them from the MSIs. I think this will be a feature request. ;) - John -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Patch-with-a-simple-file-change-tp6956231p6960135.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users NOTICE: This electronic mail message and any files transmitted with it are intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
