I need to generate the product code everytime I build because while testing prior to releasing it, it would be nice to not have to uninstall and then re-install. A major upgrade does this anyway as long as the Product Code changes. I use the commandline to build my installers and as a result I need to be able to have the Project generate the code without me having to go back into Installshield each time to generate it myself.
Ideas? Thanks,
A

You should be able to write a bit of code to do this, VB, C/C++ etc.
The installshield automation interface will also allow you to modify this.
You might be able to get away with using a guid creation tool, and then using MsiStuff to add this into the msi file.
