    <p>I am trying to create a WiX installer for a Windows service, and I have read that I need to set the KeyPath to “no” for all my files, with the exception of the .exe in my WiX script. I am currently generating my Directory and file structure using Heat.exe here is my command:</p> <pre><code>"$(WIX)bin\heat.exe" dir $(SolutionDir)EmailGenerationService\bin\PROD -cg EmailGenFiles -gg -scom -sreg -sfrag -srd -suid -dr INSTALLLOCATION -var var.FileSource -t $(Projectdir)KeyPathTransform.xslt -out $(ProjectDir)DirectoryAndFileComponents.wxs </code></pre> <p>It is my intention to update all the file elements with <code>Keypath=”no”</code> in my DirectoryAndFileComponents.wxs file. A sample of the output from heat is:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"&gt; &lt;Fragment&gt; &lt;DirectoryRef Id="INSTALLLOCATION"&gt; &lt;Component Id="Dollar.Common.dll" Guid="{2BCD0767-2383-47CF-B1BF-325FA4A3264F}"&gt; &lt;File Id="Dollar.Common.dll" KeyPath="yes" Source="$(var.FileSource)\Dollar.Common.dll" /&gt; &lt;/Component&gt; &lt;Component Id="Dollar.Common.Exceptions.dll" Guid="{B7238091-76D1-42F5-A3B4-A539DFF3BD92}"&gt; &lt;File Id="Dollar.Common.Exceptions.dll" KeyPath="yes" Source="$(var.FileSource)\Dollar.Common.Exceptions.dll" /&gt; &lt;/Component&gt; &lt;Component Id="Dollar.Common.Exceptions.pdb" Guid="{43711979-747D-49C9-BAE4-ECD44FAF5E67}"&gt; &lt;File Id="Dollar.Common.Exceptions.pdb" KeyPath="yes" Source="$(var.FileSource)\Dollar.Common.Exceptions.pdb" /&gt; &lt;/Component&gt; &lt;Component Id="Dollar.Common.Logging.dll" Guid="{59F9ABF3-5F68-410C-BC96-0556282F1E04}"&gt; &lt;File Id="Dollar.Common.Logging.dll" KeyPath="yes" Source="$(var.FileSource)\Dollar.Common.Logging.dll" /&gt; &lt;/Component&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here is the XSLT I am passing to heat to perform the transformation:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" exclude-result-prefixes="msxsl" xmlns:wix="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wix" xmlns:my="my:my"&gt; &lt;xsl:output method="xml" indent="no"/&gt; &lt;xsl:strip-space elements="*"/&gt; &lt;xsl:template match="@*|node()"&gt; &lt;xsl:copy&gt; &lt;xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/&gt; &lt;/xsl:copy&gt; &lt;/xsl:template&gt; &lt;xsl:template match='/wix:Wix/wix:Fragment/wix:DirectoryRef/wix:Component/wix:File[@Id and not (@Id="EmailGenerationService.exe")]'&gt; &lt;xsl:attribute name="KeyPath"&gt; &lt;xsl:value-of select="no"/&gt; &lt;/xsl:attribute&gt; &lt;/xsl:template&gt; &lt;/xsl:stylesheet&gt; </code></pre> <p>I have tried quite a few variations of this based on other posts on this site and else where, but as yet have been unable to get the file created by heat.exe to have KeyPath=”no”.</p> <p>Am I missing something obvious? </p>

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
