Nevermind. I realized my big mistake here is that if you don't specify the MajorUpgrade tag, then you don't have any upgrade support. I was writing the documentation incorrectly, and was under the false impression that by specifying the UpgradeCode you automatically allow the standard upgrade ability, but that's not the case. I have added the UpgradeCode but left out the MajorUpgrade element.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Hiding UpgradeCode Attribute Warning Having the same UpgradeCode for 2 installers causes the installer to initiate an upgrade instead of an additional installation. I want a new UpgradeCode each build, so that no 2 packages will have the same UpgradeCode, allowing us to install the multiple versions. If there is a better way to do this, I am open to it.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Hiding UpgradeCode Attribute Warning Yes, I read that. However, that doesn't say why you need a unique UpgradeCode all the time. _____________________________________________________________ Short replies here.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Hiding UpgradeCode Attribute Warning As I had described in my other emails, I am in a situation where our "upgrades" are really just an install of another version. They need to exist side-by-side. But I need to remove the warning that is brought up that I don't have an upgrade code, and the upgrade code can't have the "*" value.
