Automation QuickPatch

Could someone point me to an basic example of a QuickPatch automation script please or suggest an alternative method.

Basically when developers fix a program (HotFix) a knowledge base (KB) article is created and file(s) placed in the KB folder. this event needs to trigger an automated build of the hotfix.

The Hotfix's would be applied to the RTM MSI and eventually accumulated to a service pack and new full build.

Regards
Neil

Seems you can't create a QuickPatch via automation.....

What are people using instead?

Do I have to move away from Installshield to Wix or something to get this functionality?

Looking through the forums I gather there was a works order to support automation for Quick Patches?

If you figure it out, let me know. I'd love to have you as a guest blogger. I'm pretty much of the opinion that the problem being solved is so complex and variable that there is no point in trying to automate it. I hope to be proven wrong one day.
