I have a basic MSI product where i want to publish the features of the product and its usage tothe end user. The enduser has to see the help information dialog when he executes the msi product at command line like "C:\filename.msi \?" but it should not display the generic msiexec help info. Any help please?

As a workaround, you could use a property instead of /? and display a help dialog if the property is set:
msiexec /i your.msi SHOWHELP=1
