Hi does anyone know how to change save paths contained in MSI's as when I roll out the software I would like to save to the users my documents not the local drive and owuld also like to put resources on the server?

There are a few ways to do this. If the author of the MSI wrote it to accept the destiation on the command line you can do it that way, something like: msiexec /i file.msi DESTINATION=FOLDER If they didn't write the MSI to do that, you can use ORCA which is available from Microsoft's Platform SDK (I believe). This program will allow you to modify values in an MSI package and resave it. I've had some luck with this.
