However, there's a free tool from Microsoft called ORCA. It expects that
you are familiar with the structure of an MSI and lets you edit it, but its
not for the weak-of-heart.
Thanks - However I only want to see what is there. I have no desire to edit the contents, and am certainly unwilling to pay the big bucks just to look
The real problem is that I am running VS.Net to build a deployment project, and when the msi is run, it does not install the files that have been designated to be installed in the target directory. It is missing some dlls. I would like to know this in advance before sending the dll to the customer
Wow ! That seems to be a very long winded way of looking inside a msi file.
Can we get the Orca program without having to install the full SDK or does
Orca depend on the SDK?
Yes, it is a lot to download if all you want is Orca and not the rest of the
Platform SDK. However, if you download the IntelSDK (8Mb) and install that
instead then you will find the setup for Orca (orca.msi) in the 'Tools'
directory...
