had a look in the installation directory of your Wise Product? There is good documentation of using the Automation Interfaces (COM). I regulary use these interfaces to automate repetative tasks.

The operation of the Automation Interface and the operation of the Wise Macro Language are very similar, as both use what is essentially vbscript. The automation interface works outside of the WFWI GUI whereas the macro language works from inside the WFWI GUI, so the choice is yours.

The automation interface is very powerful and can be used to create a complete and ready to go MSI starting from a Wise template or any other MSI. However, there is quite a bit of programming required, although once in place, it is pretty easy to maintain.

>I'm looking for a way to automate this so I can integrate it with our build/deployment process.

Wix every time, no?

If you read on one line further: 

>Is there a way to drive the packaging studio via the command line, scripts or other automation?

Taken in context with the title of the message, I believe it is pretty definitive.

Sure you can use Wix to perform automation as well - it depends on whether you have existing familiarity with Wix or need to learn it from scratch. Then there is the consideration of ongoing maintenance of installs. If you use several tools instead of one, it increases the maintenance skillset required.

But then you know this Ian, so I'm guessing you have some spare time on your hands at the moment..??

I won't tell if you don't
