Can you specify AND FORCE the order in which MSIs are installed? Visual Studio .NET 2003 needs the prerequisites installed in a specific order and yet so far we cannot define the order and so have to create separate OUs and GPOs for each part - requiring us to 'sheep-dip' the software!
 
It seems to work down the list in alphabetical order, i've assigned certain MSI's numbers before to get them to appear at the top of the list, or append it with an A. Very crude i know but it seems to work.
