Pass public PROPERTY from one Suite Install to Another?
Hi All,
I am working on a suite so I can install a main app and then a support app after it. Is there a way I can pass a PROPERTY from the main install to the support install afterwards? I'm trying to pass USERNAME and IS_SQLSERVER_SERVER from the main install to the support install.
Thanks!

Sure, just add references to the suite property in the command line settings of the relevant package operations. For example, on an MSI package, look under Operation > Install > MSI Command Line, and add IS_SQLSERVER_SERVER="[IS_SQLSERVER_SERVER]". Then do the same for MSI Silent Command Line so things work correctly during silent installations of your suite. EXE packages work similarly, but the syntax required on the command line may differ.
