[wix-users] Updates with Major.Minor.Build.Revision needed

[sampat magi]

Ahh!! Something is bringing miscommunication!!!

I am thinking on the second part of the original question, which goes like
this,

Now I am asking you to please help me find a good solution in which the
installer uses all (Major.Minor.Build.Revision) for version comparison,

which prevents downgrades with a specific error message and tells me what's
going on via properties or something so I can schedule my actions depending
on that.

Or is there any better idea???

My thought was to have type 19 CA to display appropriate downgrade error
message using version read from registry into a property!!

Yes, we should Windows Installer rules and standards to avoid additional
overhead!!!

We differentiate our products patches with 3 version fields.

Sampat
