How do I determine weather a feature is installed to run from source in a CA VBS? I have a VBS CA that is checking the ADDSOURCE property to see where a feature is installed so I can make registry entries that point to the location of the files, but ADDSOURCE is always null, even when I use Custom setup to run them from source. Maybe I am overlooking something simple. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can check the FeatureRequestState property of the Session Object. Read the Windows Installer help library article titled "FeatureRequestState Property" for more information.

'This is a sample vbscript code
nFeatureState=Session.FeatureRequestState("MyFeature")
if(nFeatureState=3) then
msgbox "Run from source"
end if

hope this helps smile.gif
