I am sorry but I can't answer your question without spending time hunting for what I did four years ago. I have probably done that but not recently. Note that you are using the dash character (-) in a manner that it is not typically used. Most people would use an equal sign (=) or a colon(:). Other people are probably having difficulty understanding what you are trying to say not because of words but because you are using a dash in a manner that probably is confusing. What are you using to update the msi database? You should be able to use samples of doing what you need to do and using the tool you are using.
