Using Prerequisite Editor - Changing the Default Name
I am doing a Basic MSI install for a client and I have to define some prerequisites using the Prerequisite Editor (which works very nicely by the way).
The first one you define is called MySetupPrerequisite by default. The seconds is MySetupPrerequisite1, and so on.
Is there any way to change this prerequisite name from the default name that is assigned? So at the beginning of the install, when the list of prerequisites is displayed, it could say something like "Installing Crystal Reports RTM for Visual Studios 2008" instead of saying "Installing MySetupPrerequisite"?

Just open that prereq and do a "Save As". There you can give it whatever name you want.
