Merge Module Options Tab

Merge Module Locations (Current User) and Merge Module Locations (All Users)

The All Users option is available if you would like to run a command-line build under a system account for which you cannot easily update the user settings.

Enter the paths where you will be storing merge modules. For installation projects, the Redistributables view of the InstallShield interface displays all of the merge modules in these folders. Separate additional paths with a comma, as in the following example:

C:\MergeModules,C:\My Files\MergeModules

The first path you list is where InstallShield should copy merge modules after they are built, if specified. The folder is created if it does not exist.

The default location for copying new merge modules is the MergeModules folder in the location that is specified in the Project Location field on the File Locations tab.

Matching files must have the same version

When you add a file to your project, InstallShield searches the merge modules to see if there is a module that contains that file and notifies you of any matches.

If the files must be the same version in order to be considered a match, select this check box.
