Hi,
I need to have this installer be able to recognize if the already created .msi has been run and installed, and creating a new .msi with Advanced Installer only overwrote the directory and didn't recognize the previous install with the old .msi.
If I understand right you have a msi package and you want to create a new one with Advanced Installer that do the same thing? And this new msi package be able to detect if the old msi is already installed.
If this is what you want to do then you can detect if the old package is installed by scheduling a file search for a file that you know is was installed with the old msi. If the search succeed this mens that your old msi package is already installed and the search property gives you the path where the file was found.
If this is not what you are trying to achieve then please give me more details in order to help you.
Regards,
Gigi
