You want an installer designed to use instance transforms. It can be tricky and a lot of authoring has to be done manually to make it all work, but I do have one installer that currently supports up to 16 instance transforms.

Each of them has its own installer. To have a common key for all versions I would like to share the upgrade code. From what I have learned so far, the upgrade code is good for a major upgrade that uninstalls the older version. But is it safe to use the same upgrade code for multiple versions without uninstalling the older ones? I have seen that Microsoft does it - among others - for the MSVC 2005 Redistributables. Does anyone have experiences with this?
