Or anyone that might know.  Phil, I've read you book, it was very helpful,
however this Search Registery and Condition problem I'm having is about to
make me jump off the edge.

I've created a deployment project and decided I wanted to use the Registry
Search feature setup as follows:

Search Target Machine
   Search for my Environment
       Property: MYENVMODE
       RegKey: SOFTWARE\MyApp
       Root: vsdrrHKLM
       Value: Version

Launch Conditions
   MyCondition
       Condition: MYENVMODE >= "3.0.0.0"
       Message: "Condition True!"

If I create a registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MyApp
then create a string value Version

If do the following:
set Version = "3.0.0.0", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "2.9.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "3.1.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"

If change Condition: MYENVMODE = "3.0.0.0"
set Version = "3.0.0.0", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "2.9.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "3.1.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"

If change Condition: MYENVMODE < "3.0.0.0"
set Version = "3.0.0.0", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "2.9.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "3.1.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"

If change Condition: MYENVMODE <> "3.0.0.0"
set Version = "3.0.0.0", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "2.9.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"
set Version = "3.1.1.1", Message displays "Condition True!"

As you can see, it doesn't matter what I do, this always evalutes to true
and triggers the condition.  Do conditions just NOT work? I've read several
other people have the exact same problem.  Just for reference, when testing,
I right click on the deployment project in VS 2005 and select "Install".

What the heck am I doing wrong?  I'm stumped -- been working on this all
day!

Thanks, Rob.
