Importing the InstallExecuteSequence

The InstallExecuteSequence table lists the actions that are executed when the installer executes the top-level INSTALL action. See Installation Procedure Tables Group, Using a Sequence Table, and the Sequence Table Detailed Example.

If in the section Importing a Blank Database you used uisample.msi from the Windows Installer SDK, the sequence tables in your copy of MNP2000.msi already contains the suggested action sequences described in Using a Sequence Table. No changes to these sequences are necessary to author the Notepad installation package.

Use your database editor to open MNP2000.msi and enter the following data into the InstallExecuteSequence table.
