I am completely new to WIX but I have been using Installshield for the last many years. I am rewriting our install with WIX now and have most of the parts working in my msi. I am now starting on the Bundle part to install the 3 prerequisites that we need, .Net framework, VC runtime, and AccessExcel.
I am getting stumped with 1 concept (so far!) I don't think I want the Bundle in ARP but I do want the 3 redists and our MSI. I am currently disabling the Modify/Repair/Remove in the Bundle and then running the msi with DisplayInternalUI and Visible to yes.
My question is, is this the best way to do this? I am then having the MSI handle the major upgrades and the EULA. I need to rebuild this msi 3 times for each deploy with different parameters passed in, so I wind up with 3 different Bundles. Each one of the Bundles should be able to be run and completely replace the other ones. I have always handled that in Installshield with the MajorUpdates and using the same Upgrade code in each build.
Thanks!
