Hi All,
I need to install a merge module only if a specific feature is selected. Is there a way to do this visual (just like registy and files) or in code?
I need this option also for a file association. Only if a feature is selected, I want to bind my application to an extension.
Thanks in advance...

a little bit more complicated
To make it clear: We have a plugin-module in our application which needs a merge module to install.
It is unnecessary to install the merge module and our file association when this option is unselected. In installAware there is a feature: PluginModule
We have example files, just some files. . In InstallAware there is an install feature: Example Files (easy job)
We have example files for this plugin-module, these are an odbc-alias and some files. Only when both options are selected, these things need to be installed.
Any idea, how to solve this problem?

Conditional installation of merge modules is not possible at this time, sorry. However we will soon release an MSM import tool which will reverse engineer MSM files and convert them into InstallAware script, so you can achieve this easily.
About the second part of your question - you can test if both features have been selected by using If commands and the Get Component State command.
