I understand that the way an InstallShield project supports
multi-language installs is by applying a transform to the msi from
setup.exe prior to executing the msi.  What I'm not sure about is if
there is anyway to have multiple languages within one msi, so the
language may be selected even if the msi is ran directly instead of
through an exe.  Any information appreciated!

Thanks,

You can embed the transforms in the msi, but you would still have to call msiexec with coomand line parameters to specify the language transform.

What you could try is a complete custom solution: most text fields support properties, so you could write custom actions that set the text from within your setup. But that's very tedious.
