Edit MSI packages without having to convert them to an ISM project and save the changes made into a transform (MST) file.
Opening Existing Transforms for Editing
Browse for an existing MST file. Before InstallShield can open the MST file, it
needs the base MSI to which this file should be applied. Also, it requires the
names of any additional MSTs that should be applied to the base MSI before
opening the MST for editing.
The first time you open an MST file, the MST Wizard launches. This wizard allows
you to specify the MST file (completed by default), the base MSI file, and any
additional transforms to apply before editing. When the wizard is finished, the
transforms are applied and the MST opens in the IDE in Direct MST mode. The data
specified in the wizard is saved so the next time the file is opened, the MST
opens directly in the IDE.
Creating New Transform Projects
You can use the transform project type to create a new MST for editing.
As with opening an existing transform, when you create a new transform project,
the MST Wizard launches.
