I'm creating a new basic MSI project with Installshield 2008 Premier.

I have defined 2 redistributables within the prerequisites editor that needs to be installed before the actual installation starts.

These 2 redistributables need the Windows Installer 3.0 engine to run.

In the release view of the project, you can select the setup.exe tab and define that you want to include the Windows Installer 3.0 engine into your project(extract it from setup.exe).

My question: which installation will occur first assuming that Windows Installer 3.0 and at least 1 of the defined prerequisites within the editor is not available on the system?

Cheers,
Christoph
