[wix-users] Separate Component for each SqlScript element?

[Edwin Castro]

You are not allowed to change components. You are breaking the component
rules. Rob has a few blog posts on the component rules that you should read
and understand. I can't look them up right now, I'm on my phone, but I'll
look for them after I get to work.

The only time you can change a component is if you are doing a major
upgrade *and* RemoveExistingProducts is scheduled early (so that all old
components are completely uninstalled before the new, different components
can be installed). For all other kinds of upgrades, including major ugrades
scheduled late, you cannot change components as the Windows Installer
engine requires components to be immutable.
