Windows Installer Version 3.0 Command Line

With the new changes in the command line used in installing applications with the advent of Windows Installer 3.0, I am only wondering on how to apply transforms.

Do you apply transforms with MSIEXEC /package "path to MSI" TRANSFORMS="path to MST" or is there any change in the public property TRANSFORMS?

Yeah, the Windows Installer 3.0 command line options are different.

Reference:

Relevant info cut from page:

The following example shows advertisement options. Note that switches are not case-sensitive.

msiexec /JM msisample.msi /T transform.mst /LIME logfile.txt

The following example shows you how to install a new instance of a product to be advertised. This product is authored to support multiple instance transforms.

msiexec /JM msisample.msi /T :instance1.mst;customization.mst /c /LIME logfile.txt
