I can't seem to find out how to add multiple files and folders in MSI 2.0. I have done this many times in SF6 but I can't find how to add more than the contents to 1 folder at a time.

I would like to add an entire directory structure, and have it inderstand the folders under the main INSTALLDIR so I don't have to spend all this time making folders and then moving files to the folders.

Thank you, Mike.

In the 'Add Files' dialog there is an option 'All Files in the this folder and all sub folders' that can add an entire folder structure.

Or you can drag and drop that folder structure onto the design environment.

Adam,

Thanks for the hint. It turns out in Vista, you don't have the options for "All files in this folder", or "All files and sub-directories" And in the All files *.* selection, it just gives you types of files (exe's, doc's, etc). See attached.

But the Drag-Drop seems to work. So I will play with this for a while.

Thank you, Mike.
