Hi,

[quoted text, click to view]

How do you apply Phil's suggestion, and what's the condition do you set for
the target file?
Would you please provide more detailed info about this problem?

Thanks for your understanding!

Best regards,

I am trying to detect the presence of SQLDMO, so that that it only gets
installed if it is not already registered. I have created a registry search:

Name: Search for RegistryEntry1
Property: SQLDMOINSTALLED
RegKey: {10020100-E260-11CF-AE68-00AA004A34D5}\VersionIndependentProgID
Root: vsdrrHKCR
Value:

I have then put a condition on each file:

SQLDMOINSTALLED!="SQLDMO.Application"

I am trying to read the value of the default value.

Hi,

[quoted text, click to view]

So what happens during your VSPackage's installation, does the condition
always be true?

If so, I suggest you specify the target item under that key you
needed("Default"), and also provide a default value to this registry search
property...

Thanks!

Hi,

[quoted text, click to view]

I figured out what's problem of your issue, the registry serach is alright,
but the launch condition shoule be:

SQLDMOINSTALLED<>"SQLDMO.Application"

The inequality operator "!=" could not be recognized in the launch
condition's exprssion, you need to use the "<>" operator instead.

By the way, if the specific registry key(item) hasn't been found, then the
corresponding property would be empty, you can use the following expression
to check does it exist and meet the specific condition:

(SQLDMOINSTALLED<>"SQLDMO.Application")AND(SQLDMOINSTALLED)

Hope this help!
