I am trying to create a patch file for a Windows Installer installation. I have created the .pcp file and need to create the .msp file. When I type the MsiMsp.exe command line, I get a message stating " not recognized as a valid command,program,batch file etc." from the command line prompt.

I have an updated version of the installer SDK and I know the MsiMsp.exe tool is installed on my system.

Any ideas as to what I can do to make it run properly?

Do you specify the correct path to msimsp?

As Stefan mentioned it should just be a path problem....copy the msimsp.exe from the SDK\bin into your local directory and run the command again.

In my case,
MsiMsp.Exe exist in "(Platform SDK)\Samples\sysmgmt\msi\Patching" folder..
