Tags:

Description:

This script will change GUIDs to upper case, as per Windows Installer Best Practises

Usage

CScript.exe {Script} {MSI}

Script

'set up log file

Dim objLogFile : Set objLogFile = fso.OpenTextFile(logFile, ForAppending, True)
WriteLog "Make GUIDs upper Case"
WriteLog "Processing: " & MSIPath.Name
