Suite and Windows installer 4.5

[rune_paulsen]

To be able to use transaction processing, the user need Windows Installer 4.5. Installed.

With an msi installer, we can add these using Prerequisites, for example for Vista x64, Installshield will add Windows6.0-KB958655-v2-x64.msu.

The Suite, don’t have Prerequisites, we need to add these as a normal package.

But, how do you add a msu as to the Suite?

Add an .exe package (use any dummy .exe you like, such as notepad), and add the .msu to replace the .exe file. Then modify the Install operation's target to refer to [SystemFolder]wusa.exe instead of the dummy exe.
