Add new application to existing package
I have a SAP package already sequenced and the package works fine.The package has an pre-requiste msxml4 and vc++ but my customer want this applications inside the package.
Please let me know how can i add msxml4 and vc++ to my existing SAP package without sequencing the whole package again.

You can make use of DSC (Dynamic Suite Composition) for this.This tool will combine your pre-reqs with your main package.For more details see this : http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6655
You can install these as a pre requisite on the machine directly rather than sequencing them or doing a DSC.
Since these are common components which will be required by other applications as well, it is better to install them on the machine.
If you are using SCCM then you can easily chain these applications as pre requisite to the app-v application. If you are not using SCCM, then it would be tricky and you would need to deploy these to the same user group to which you advertise App-V.
