Greyed out Release Wizard/ Build Button?
Hi All,
I'm pretty new to installshield and windows installer service so be gentle.
I'm working on a basic MSI project at the moment, and i am ready to build a release, but the release wizard/ build buttons are greyed out?
What am I missing?
Thanks...

What does the InstallShield caption bar say? If you have an MSI package open in Direct Edit mode, for example, changes are made directly to the MSI package and therefore there's no build process...

Thanks RobertDickau..
I'm actually attempting to create a Transform file and it is in Direct MST Mode. All I want to do is change the install directory for some software i have and am using the Transform file to do this. When i test the transform in Installshield, the software installs to the new location, however when i use a batch script to install the package along with the transform file it installs to the old location? So it's like the transform is not being considered?
Here is my command :-
msiexec /i "c:\WizInstall\Lotus_Notes_6.0.3.msi" TRANSFORMS="WizardCustomNotesClient.Mst" /passive
Could the /passive switch be causing my install in install to the old location?
