DEPT.MMH

See "Preferred MSI Interface for Building a Complete MSI" for more details...

In general you should not include this header file directly by your scripts, see "DENNIS.MMH" for an example of how it should be used.

; Note that this header is one of the few intended to be "replaced".
; It has however been written so physical altering or deleting of this
; file should not be required.
;
; There are many options, some are:
;
;       1. Ignore this file altogether, create your own front end with
;          different filenames so as not to clash.
;
;       2. Modify this file BUT if you do so you should move it to a
;          different directory so as not be be deleted ALONG WITH YOUR
;          CHANGES on a MAKEMSI uninstall!
;
;       3. Create a new header that overrides some things but still includes
;          this one.
;
; Let me know of any issues.
