Basic MSI: LaunchApplication (in CA) question

Hi.

Basic MSI:
Can I use LaunchApplication (with LAAW_OPTION_USE_SHELLEXECUTE) in a InstallSript CA to raise the UAC prompt for elevated privileges during the UI sequence (with using 'runas' as the lpVerb of SHELLEXECUTEINFO Structure)?

That should work, yes. Are you having difficulty doing so? Be aware that "runas" has a slightly different meaning on pre-Vista, so you may want to conditionalize your code somewhat if you are targeting multiple versions of Windows.
