Set the condition to 1=2, so the component won't be installed. This is the easiest way, in my opinion.

Set component condition to "0" without quotes on which you dont want to install.

Hi Veera ,
Set component condition to 0 is one way ...
but this makes the component not installed always ...
here is a case which can explain you the conditioning the components :
A application has some files that to be installed depending on the OS based.
a.dll has to be installed on XP machines and not on vista or win 7 machine.
similarly b.dll has to be installed on vista and win 7 machine not on XP machine.
so the best way for this
Create a system search to get OS value and set it to property .
then in component condition assign the property ...
for a.dll the component condition can be set to WINNT<5.0 so that it gets installed in XP machine only ...
I hope this throws some light....
