Prerequisite's that run a PowerShell

Hi

I'm using basic MSI on InstallShield 2010

How can I create a prerequisite's that run a PowerShell script ?
I need to install the .net framework 3.5 on Windows 2008 R2 machine.

Can you install the .Net framwork on these machines?
I thought you had to simply enable it from the windows features section.

This is correct.
And I'm trying to do that with a PowerShell command line that will run as prerequisite.
As described under
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlblog/archive/2010/01/08/how-to-install-net-framework-3-5-sp1-on-windows-server-2008-r2-environments.aspx

Is there a better way to do that ?

I see what you're trying to do.
In our installs we detect if it's installed or not.
The user then has to install it himself.

Hope someone helps u.

How about creating your own exe that simply launches PowerShell script. You can then use that exe in a prerequisite and also include scripts in the same prerequisite...
