A good idea; I have spent a (not so) little time trying to figure out what it takes with the MSI file, but I haven't got there yet.

If you have figured it out (how to overwrite existing files), maybe you could tell me the raw details; what MSI file properties need to be set to what, etc., and I could help out with the language.

>Creating an setup package is not as simple as before - but not to much. It is a big help on this to understand MSI structure. As I mentioned before, get the MSI SDK, do the examples and you will see how InstallExpress works. It will also teach the limits of the wrapper (also that of the full express version).
