Hi Steve,

>>> We use WiX to create the MSI's and InstallShield (2018 R2 Premiere
edition)
to create Advanced UI (Suite installers) that wrap the WiX MSI's.

We are also going to do the same since we have InstallShield license. But
we have two products
that can be installed individually (i.e. without Suite). So, we may need to
create a BA which displays
language selection Dialog for at least these two products.

Regards,
Satya
