Finding files affected by a program?

How can I get a list of all files that my .msi program installs on my machine?

Thanks

I assume by this question you are not knowledgeable in "Windows Installer"?

If so, then the best method might be to read up a little on Windows Installer, and use a utility called ORCA.EXE that can read the internals of a .MSI file. This way, you could look at the File table, and get a listing of ALL files that possibly could be installed.
