dynamic chained MSI (s)
I have 12 msi packages, named Software-A through Software-L.
I need a way to package them, without entering the InstallShield UI, as chained MSIs into a single MSI install package programatically. There may be any combination of the 12 packages.
Each package is 20 to 50 mb and I cannot afford the space to include them all and then only install the ones I need.
Can anyone give me just a small example of how this would be scripted?
I'm open to any idea it just has to be done programatically and I have to be able to specify order.

Is this even possible?
