I've got a condition on a custom action that's not working how I think it should and hoped to enlist some suggestions here.
Here's my condition:

| CODE |
| VersionNT=502 AND REMOVE<>"ALL" AND IISMAJORVERSION_REG>=6 |
I get the value for IISMAJORVERSION_REG from a System Search reading the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\InetStp | MajorVersion
Here's the appropriate lines from the log file:
| CODE |
| MSI (s) (90:F4) [14:01:20:984]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying IISMAJORVERSION_REG property. Its current value is '0'. Its new value: '#6'. MSI (s) (90:F4) [14:01:20:984]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding REMOVE property. Its value is 'SAP,SAP_Pre_47,SAP_47_Plus'. |
and the from the property dump at the end of the log file
| CODE |
| Property(S): VersionNT = 502 Property(S): IISMAJORVERSION_REG = #6 Property(S): REMOVE = SAP,SAP_Pre_47,SAP_47_Plus |
The thing that I'm guessing is the problem is that the value for IISMAJORVERSION_REG has a number sign in front of it. What does that mean and how do I deal with it?
Thanks!

IIRC, the hash sign means that it's stored in the registry as a REG_DWORD type. I have no idea (without testing) how WI's condition evaluator deals with that but my suspicion is that it's converted to a string. Thus, your condition should be changed to test for "#6", as in:
VersionNT=502 AND REMOVE<>"ALL" AND IISMAJORVERSION_REG>="#6"
Don't quote me, though (sorry, couldn't resist...)
VersionNT=502 AND REMOVE<>"ALL" AND IISMAJORVERSION_REG>="#6"

I made a quick little project to test this out and it seems to work. Thanks!
