Hi @banna_k, Thanks for the reply. I'll be giving it a try. However, I do think it is a bit of a workaround because it would effectively disable xml transformation for all xml files, meaning if there would have been a problem with one of them they will not get repaired. I guess to implement it in a clean way the variables would have to be persisted somehow. Do you have any suggestions for how to achieve that?

Hi everyone, We have a installer that does some XML file changes. One of the changes can be specified by the command line or entered into a text box in the GUI during installation. The value is a key from which the actual XML changes are derived by a custom action. However, if we run a repair on the installation the XML changes are overwritten with our default values and thus the repair actually breaks the installation. I would have expected the entered values (CommandLine or GUI) to be persisted somehow, so that the repair feature would know what to do. I don't have much experience with InstallShield and was wondering if anyone can guide me in a direction? Or how would one implement this?
