currently, the only methods i know of logging an msi is via:
1. commandline (/l*v)
2. registry (HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.../InstallShield/Logging)
3. group policy

and these are all external to the msi as in they can't be called from within a setup script. is there any way of specifying logging so that when the user executes "blah.msi" it will create a verbose log in the %temp% dir?

Thanks,
Joe.

Turning on logging from inside a msi file is currently not possible. It will be in MSI 4, that is in Windows Vista.
