Hello all

I have a general question I'm not sure where it really belongs so I guess this OK to start with.


Is there any tool that will allow you to view the files included in an MSI and then extract some of them? You used to be able to do that with a CAB file.

Look at Windows Installer Development Tools (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372834(VS.85).aspx), especially Orca.

You can also write Installer scripts to manipulate the contents of an MSI database.
