Problem when rerunning setup.exe

Hi,

I am using InstallShield 2008 install script MSI project.when reruning setup.exe , it is uninstalling the previous installation.I want to override the previous installation.

Is there any way to do override the installed package by rerunning setup.exe?
I want to rerun setup.exe of same build means package code is same when rerunning setup.exe.


Regards

You just have to rebuild the project.
(Note that if you run it from your InstallShield IDE, it would ask if you want to remove the app first. Say no and it would continue upgrading.)

If we rebuild the package,I think created setup may have different package code. I want to rerun setup.exe of same build.
For Devstudio i did reruning of setup.exe by using MSI Command Line Arguments as
"REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vaums NOTADDREMOVE=1",For InstallShield 2008 project is not working properly by using those MSI Command Line Arguments also.

For InstallShield 2008 rerunning giving "error-1605 : This action only valid for the products that are currently installed" .
