Hi,
How can I do the following...
I need 1 setup file that includes a full install and a major upgrade. This means when a user has already installed version 1 and runs the setup for version 2, he has to choose whether to upgrade to version 2 OR to install version 2 beside version 1 (in a different folder of course).
Until now I have a:
- Basic MSI project (InstallShield 11.5)
- different GUIDs for package and product
- different product version
- authored a major upgrade
- Inserted the 'Select Destination Folder' window
- left everything else unchanged
Installing version 1 and afterwards running the setup for version 2 always uninstalls version 1. (with or without changing the destination folder)
This is correct but I also want to have the option to install version 2 beside version 1 without touching version 1.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Erik.

I haven't tried this but maybe you could add a condition to the RemoveExistingProducts action that uses a property the user set on the selection dialog, e.g.
Not INSTALLSIDEBYSIDE
or
DOMAJORUPGRADE
Not INSTALLSIDEBYSIDE
or
DOMAJORUPGRADE
