So, I'm trying to use heat to generate fragments for the files in my project. Looking at files I generated in the past, and various WiX articles from around the net, I see that I have Fragments of Directory/Component's and then a Fragment defining a ComponentGroup using ComponentRef's. <pre><code><Fragment> <DirectoryRef Id="dir0D9F6D272B6344EBFCF7EED0D14AA801"> <Component Id="cmp0BA12DCC33EB11DEB149261CF6904AAE" Guid="392C95D2-37C1-464E-9979-3E9D2BF57FEE"> <File Id="filB95C5D2C0575B59E63201E24176D55FB" KeyPath="yes" Source="SourceDir\something.dll" /> </Component> <Component Id="cmp895927B450519C5487FDEC914051E715" Guid="DDC12130-C5D5-4727-95D8-660F7229BBD7"> <File Id="fil8C5E22B3AFE9AA6056E1458BD93E3646" KeyPath="yes" Source="SourceDir\whatever.dll" /> </Component> </Fragment> <Fragment> <ComponentGroup Id="SampleProduct"> <ComponentRef Id="cmp0BA12DCC33EB11DEB149261CF6904AAE" /> <ComponentRef Id="cmp895927B450519C5487FDEC914051E715" /> </ComponentGroup> </Fragment> </code></pre> Isn't Heat supposed to generate this ComponentGroup fragment? Or did I do it manually and forgot I did so? The various Heat examples I find around the web seem to indicate that Heat does generate this fragment. I'm doing something like: heat dir . -gg -g1 -cg WhatThe -out test.wxs which produces Fragments of ComponentGroup/Component - nary a ComponentRef to be found: <pre><code><Fragment> <ComponentGroup Id="WhatThe"> <Component Id="cmp9BDA89E67E0D566068C97D3FA3AEBE70" Directory="dir54021DE1C7E3016732B498A5B2680893" Guid="392C95D2-37C1-464E-9979-3E9D2BF57FEE"> <File Id="filDE3AEB1672B47F4803B1EDAB6016DDD3" KeyPath="yes" Source="SourceDir\something.dll" /> </Component> <Component Id="cmpA8D6F6019E02CAD0DDA17E2F285D7EC8" Directory="dir54021DE1C7E3016732B498A5B2680893" Guid="DDC12130-C5D5-4727-95D8-660F7229BBD7"> <File Id="filDB325609DF363696B3F5E8D1FC22D4C5" KeyPath="yes" Source="SourceDir\whatever.dll" /> </Component> </ComponentGroup> </Fragment> </code></pre> What am I missing? Besides medium-term memory? Thanks

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
