I tried running validation of my setup through Orca and found a good number of errors and warnings.  When I looked, I saw many of the warnings were for entries that exceeded field lengths in the String Table.  Another displayed Err/Warn. indicated that non-advertised shortcuts should be tied to a registry key and not a file, etc..

These don't appear to be interferring with the functionality of the installation at this point.

How important is this?  Do many use this as part of their normal installation development regimen?

Just wondering!  And, as always, ... THANKS!

I validate all my MSIs in a batch file that also builds them but I do filter out a lot of garbage.

It has saved me a few times.
