System Search Property/Condition to not install if a newer product is found
Hi,
Here's my scenario, I want to install a particular version of a product v6 for example. I only want to install the product under a certain condition. The condition is that if v8 of the product is found installed on the machine I don't want v6 product to install. Is it possible to configure this condition in system search? What condition logic could I use to achieve this?
Thanks In Advance,
Cowley

have you looked at using the upgrade table? you wont need to worry about system searches then.

Oh well.
Create a system search to locate the ARP reg keys for the app - HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{GUID}
Create a LaunchCondition based on the result
