Hi all,
I have a custom action that needs to run on removal from the UI (Maintenance Type = Remove) or from Add Remove Programs, but not during removal during a Major Upgrade. I just want to be sure I'm going to condition this properly
I'm going to include in the condition the ActionProperty, here UPGRADEPROPERTY, from the upgrade table...
Would it be something like...
REMOVE="ALL" AND NOT UPGRADEPROPERTY ?

In the installer of the old version (which is being uninstalled) you don't see the action property but instead UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE.

I'm not quite sure I understand...
Are you saying I should use something like...
REMOVE="ALL" AND NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE as the condition for the action in question?
In other words, during a Major Upgrade, UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE will be populated with upgraded product codes, but removal from ARP or through UI will not have this property have any value. ??

Yes. If the old setup should detect whethern it is being uninstalled as part of a major upgrade, or for some other reason, UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE will tell you. It is set only during a major upgrade, not during uninstall from control panel.
