I have an application MSI deployment which will detect a specific product ID. Lets say the version for the product ID is 11.8. I have a supersedence defined for a a different application that will replace it and should uninstall that application. What I've found is that the Product ID differs for every version of that software that I'm attempting to replace. The supersedence will not handle a case where an earlier version of the software that is superseded is install. It does not detect product version 11.1 which has a different product ID. Now I was hoping I could use an OR in the detection with the Product ID detection to detect the earlier version, but there is a hardcoded product ID for the uninstall command. Is there a Variable that is avaiable based on the MSI detection to use to adapt which product ID should be uninstalled? How have you handled these circumstances?

Thanks,
