Hi,
we have an Installation for which we created a patch using the patch-design View in installshield developer 8. After the installation we replaced some of the files with newer ones because that was a simple way to update the application. Sure it was the wrong one. Now our patch does not cover theese replaced files. Can we make the patch replace theese files nevertheless they have changed? The patch is a major upgrade so a compleete reinstall of the app. The files are compleetly included in the patch so no bitpatches.

If you include whole files in the patch AND the files are version numbered I don't think there should be a problem. Are these unversioned files?
