Hi, I am interested in capturing command lines switches passed to an .msi .  I am attempting to stamp the registry with the switches used during installation (i.e. /qn+ transforms=XXXX.mst), but I cannot find a property that might represent the command line switches passed to the .msi at runtime. I have created a merge module that stamps the registry with Time, Date, & SourceDir dynamically but capturing the parameters given on the command line to the msi. have escaped me.  Any help is most appreciated. Thanks..

Each of the switches relate to a windows installer property or state, so you should be able to find these out by either using functions to get the state or value.

Maybe try an verbose log install, this might give you a hint to what value relate to what.
