To generate Package Contents reports
If a package's path to its installation file is missing or broken, you cannot generate these
reports.
1.
From the Reports menu, select a report.
The Select Package dialog box appears. For the Package Contents Summary report,
it lists all .WSI, .MSI, .WSM, and .MSM packages in the selected database that have
resources. For the By Feature report, it lists all .WSI and .MSI packages that have
resources.
2.
Select a package and click OK.
The report is generated and opens in a dialog box.
Use a report's table of contents to quickly access information about a specific type of
resource. You can print the report or save it as an HTML or XML file.
After you generate a report, it is displayed in a report viewer window.
To save a report, click Save As in the lower right of the report viewer window. You
can save a report in HTML, XML, or CSV format. When you save a report as HTML,
an HTML file is created for each page of the report, and each file has the same name
with its page number appended.
To print a report, click Print in the lower right of the report viewer window.
The date and time when the report was generated appears in the lower left corner of
the report.
To perform a text search, click on the report and press Ctrl+F.
You can move a package from one application to another. This is helpful if two packages
for the same application are imported with different application names. (Example: If
Office 2000 and Office 2003 are imported as separate applications.)
What This Report Does
Lists detailed information for every resource in an
installation, including files, registry keys, shortcuts, file
associations, and merge modules. You can generate this
report for .WSI, .MSI, .WSM, and .MSM files.
Contains the same information as the Package Contents
Summary report, but arranges it by feature. You can
generate this report for .WSI and .MSI files.
