To interject. If you do have two related bundles. The one you are installing must be a higher version than the one already installed in order for the installed one to be uninstalled. Is this correct? If both are installed and at same version then you'd have two entries in ARP?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Handling Web + CD bundle with same Version + content but built with different "BundleIDs" There are no plans to make the Bundle Id settable. There are so many things that would start to fall apart if that value was the same for two Bundles. Huge numbers of conflicts. <smile/> RelatedBundle is a fantastic way to address the problem. You could even Bundle/@Tag the different bundles and use a unique RelatedBundle/@Action='detect' and get all kinds of cool goodness.
