Hi I've found the answer to this in an older post, you cannot create merge modules with InstallAware.

If you don't want to spend money on IS/WPS to create a MSM, you can use ORCA and then follow the guidelines from this article:

We also have WiXAware (www.wixaware.com) which does let you build merge modules, but the recommended way of code re-use in InstallAware is by using the Include Script command.
