Prerequisite Check (NOT Including Prerequisites)
I just want to insert a dialog checking prerequiste depend on features.
I mean it's NOT including prerequisites.
Just want to check.
How can i do this without any script?? (Basic MSI Project)

This is often done with a pairing of System Search (or searches) and Launch Conditions (or Type 19 "Error" custom actions). You just have to translate the check to MSI's notation.
Note that this check is good to perform even if you include the full prerequisite support, in case someone runs your .msi directly, instead of through setup.exe.

Did you get this working as of yet?
I have a prerequisite that I currently have set to be installed before the main install, but now I want them to be installed when a Feature is selected to be installed. When I do this the main install runs, with Features turned on and the prerequisite is not installed.. So how does a prereq get installed when conditioned on a feature selection?
