For example, try to install a already installed msi will cause windows to pop up "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel" since it got error ERROR_PRODUCT_VERSION(1638)
and I want to change the message beacuse it is cunfusion.
I know I was supposed to edit msi with orca, open the Error table(msdn claims that), and change the "message" column of error #1638. But my msi's Error table is empty, I tried to add a row, and set its error column to 1638, but nothing changed. It still pops up the default error message.
My msi is just a "normal" msi created by VS deploy project. I have a look at microsoft's sample msi(s), and some of them has a empty Error table too.
Can anyone help? Thanks!
