Modifying InstallShield MSM

I've had the pleasure of not having to work with InstallShield very much, so I appreciate the answer to this is will be extremely simple, or more than likely, there is not much I can do about it (unless I compile my own MSM package?), but with the MSM Merge Modules, I have selected to use Visual C++ 9.0 MFC (x86) WinSXS MSM, version only states as 9.0, but getting a "SideBySide" error to say the version for 9.0.21022.8 is not found when the end user is trying to run the product.

With having 4 different flavours of version 9 in my C:\Windows\winsxs folder, I presume its not using the desired one of the version above, but there is no way to validate this in the properties of what is selected in InstallShield.

How can I either specify the selected MSM module is to use the set version of the files that is within the 9.0.21022.8 folder, or where can I find a MSM I can download to install over the top in InstallShield?

Thanks.

I suppose those 4 merge modules would be :

ATL, CRT, MFC, MFCLOC, OpenMP.

May be the sxs error can be corrected if you install the x86 merge mods for a 32 bit installation and install both x86 and x64 merge mods for a 64 bit installation.
