I have a msi with a public property CUSTOMERID. This is the base MSI. When customer logs in to download the MSI, downloaded MSI should have the CUSROMERID set based on the login. Basically I want to create a custom MSI with public property set from a base MSI so that the customer can redistribute it to his users. Can someone help with this.
