Elevated privileges for MSI Package in Vista.

Hi,

How does one build in Vista a MSI package with elevated privilege such
that UAC dialog pops up asking for user consent to proceed (Allow
/Cancel) when the MSI setup is clicked upon?

I tried using the Orca tool making few changes as mentioned in a
number of fourms but to no avail.
Could anybody guide me in achieving the above mentioned elevation in
MSI?.
I am using Installshield 12 pro to package the MSI.

For me.
Running MSI File from an elavated CMD Prompt and using Msiexec /i is the
best method (Corrected the Adminpack Problem)

Or.
