what is the difference between Repair and Modify?
Hi,
Can anybody tell me 'what is the difference between Repair and Modify?'
for example:
If feature-A and feature-B is installed and in modify if we unselect feature-B then feature-B components, files needs to be removed? or not?

Repair will re-copy those files only which are required by the features those are installed. It will not copy the files of those features which are not installed.
However modify will give you an option to change the feature selection. The modify window will appear with all the features available, installed were selected and not installed were un selected. Here if you select any feature that feature will install, and if you deselect any feature, then that feature will remove by the setup.

- YES, Feature B should be removed.

ChandanOmkar,
Thanks for your replay, unselected feature's component will uninstall.... but we need to take care about script created changes right? how can we accomplish this...
shall we have to write a code like:
if(feature-B selected) then
installcomponents();
else
uninstallcomponents();
endif;
or anyother way...
