[wix-users] Light can not find file

Het folks,

I am trying to get a simple installer example working...

Here is the XML in question:
<Component Id='HelperLibrary' Guid='649f39da-b11a-45b2-817f-ab8d06e0555e'>
  <!--<File Id='HelperDLL' Name='Helper.dll' DiskId='1' Source='Helper.dll' KeyPath='yes' />-->
  <File Id='BgsSupportInformationURL' Name='BgsSupportInformation.url' DiskId='1' Source='BgsSupportInformation.url' KeyPath='yes'/>
</Component>

When I try to reference BgsSupportInformation.url, light can not find the file. When I replace it with Helper.dll, it works.
I have verified that both files are present in the same directory.

Can someone please explain why there should be a difference in finding these files?



Thanks,
Anthony
