difference between Windows installer 3.0 and 3.1

Hi!

Forgive me if this is the wrong discussion group.

I wounder if my windows-application will be able to be installed on a
computer with windows installer 3.0. I don't have the oppertunity to try
this out, because on my computer, and others in my network, we all have
windows installer 3.1

The application is developed with VS .NET 2003 and .NET Framework 1.1. I'm
using InstallShield 11 Professional to build the msi file.

I'm thankfull for any replies.

---------------
Best regards

Here's an article that describes new features in v3.1:

You can see if you are using any of the new features, but to be sure, you
might consider setting up a test PC with the older version to be sure of
your product.
