Wrong Product Code assigned by compilation

I have a very strange problem in Installshield X. I have an ism project in which I assign a given product code. I save the project, reopen it, my product code is correctly entered.

I build.

When I look at the resulting MSI in Orca, Installshield replaced my Product Code by another one, and I am unable to find where that other GUID comes from!...

This causes a problem, because Installshield does that on each of my ism projects, and assigns its own same GUID every time. As a result, my various setup.exe won't install on the same machine!

You are probably including a merge module in the affected projects that includes a ProductCode proeprty 8which it should not do, but there was a bug in older InstallShield versions that sometimes caused merge modules to include a product code).
