How to edit XML file inside XAP/ZIP file
Hi,
I have a Basic MSI project and I need to edit XML file inside XAP or ZIP Archive during installation?
Is it possible to do this with XML changes view or do I need to use some Custom action?
Please, could someone help me to solve this problem? Thanks!!:confused:

The XML File Changes view is only capable of modifying files that are available on disk. You might be able to write custom actions to extract and reinsert the file in the XAP around the time that the XML changes are applied, but at that point it might make more sense just to do all parts of this in one action.

I thought so too. Thanks for the quick reply.
I'll just have to use some archive tool to get this done.:eek:
