The MSI 3 SDK is available for download as part of the XP2SDK on
http://www.microsoft...msdk/sdkupdate/

Its quite a nice MSI. and comes with Orca v 3.0.3790 and the all new MsiMsp.exe

If you want to only install the tools so that you can use the docs online, use this commandline for a 6.5Mb download
CODE
msiexec /i http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/sdk/update/win98mexp/en-us/2600.2180/PSDK-x86.msi /qr ADDLOCAL=SDK_MSI_BIN


If you want to download just the MSI 3 feature of the SDK (44Mb) then you
need only these files
CODE
http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/sdk/update/win98mexp/en-us/2600.2180/PSDK-x86.msi
http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/sdk/update/win98mexp/en-us/2600.2180/PSDK-PSDK-common.0.cab

The MSI 3 runtime redistributable installer is not yet available, and the release date is unknown.

When running the install after downloading the separate files to install just the MSI 3.0 SDK information, I got an error indicating that the following file is also needed:

http://download.micr...in-common.0.cab

OOPS

Sorry for my previous post. I ran the install but did NOT disable the non-MSI SDK features (which is why the other files were needed).

You only need the files specified in the original post if you make sure you disable all the non-MSI SDK features using the custom install option.
