Perl + missing tables in MSI file
I have such problem.
When i parse ISMfile with this query "select * from _Tables" I got all tables (like BBControl, Billboard ...). But for MSIfile with the same query table like BBControl, Billboard are missing and i don't know why???? After adding some data f.e. in BBControl table (in MSI file) and after run query "select * from _Tables" table BBControl is in list table. How can i get all tables form MSI file???
Thx.
Sorry for ma english

I believe InstallShield removes some tables from the MSI database at build time if they're empty in the ISM project file. Please see [post=361243]this post[/post] for information that controls which tables to remove, and search these forums for "missing tables" for additional comments.
