How can you determine if a component or file is being replaced during a minor upgrade? I need to condition a custom action to run only if a new file is replacing an old one. If the standard file versioning logic indicates the file is not be be replaced, I don't want the CA to run. Statements such as $Component=3 won't work because that will be true if the original install added the file and the file is not changed during the update.
Thanks in advance.

Perhaps check this SDK help topic: http://msdn.microsof...1(v=vs.85).aspx
Would the "Run action only on the reinstallation of a component" work?:
?ComponentName=$ComponentName
There are both action states and installation states, the action state should specify what "is about to happen".
