Feature selection on a silent install
I'm using a basic msi project. Is there a way to specify which features should be selected when running a silent install from the command line? I read the kb article on silent installs but it didn't discuss feature selection.

Perhaps look in the MSI help about the ADDLOCAL property? You can set that at the msiexec.exe or setup.exe command line...

That worked like a champ! I added ADDLOCAL with a comma delimited list of features to my command line.
ADDLOCAL=Feature1,Feature2,Feature3
ADDLOCAL=Feature1,Feature2,Feature3
