Hi All,
I would like to know what is the difference (if there is one) between the package code value written in "General Information --> Summary Information Stream --> Package Code" and the value written in "Releases --> Product configuration" ?

The question is related to Basic MSI.

Thanks,

Lilach

The value in General Information is used for all releases where you don't explicitly specify a value. The release settings override the general settings.
This applies to PackageCode, ProductCode etc. However the PackageCode should be set to "generate automatically" because each build should have a different (random) PackageCode and the best way is to let InstallShield vreate it for you.
