Tip:You can also access the Export Components Wizard from the Project menu in InstallShield.
When you export a component into a project, a copy of this component is added to the specified .ism file, along with all of the component’s data, such as its files, shortcuts, registry entries, and advanced settings. Any string entries, properties, and path variables used in the dialog are also copied to your new project.
If the target .ism file already has a component of the same name with different properties, the Resolve Conflict dialog box opens to offer you options for resolving the conflicts.
