Hi all

I wonder if anyone thought about this one: An InstallShield project uses MSMs (Windows Installer merge modules). When the InstallShield project is built, it should merge these MSMs.

InstallShield expects to find the MSMs in a certain folder. We keep the MSMs in VSS. How do we know in which folder to get them, if we don't want to force hardcoded folders?

Thanks in advance

I would assume that the Installshield project is also in your SCM system, so it might make sense to use a relative path to get the latest merge files before invoking the Make Installshield action.
