Nsis Uninstall

Hey All,

I working on an uninstaller which will remove various programs from my computer, including tomcat. Most of the programs I am removing allow me to simply use the execWait msiexec.exe, however tomcat does not. So instead I am being forced to call it like so
ExecWait 'C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\Uninstall.exe /Remove' so begins my problem. I am okay using the tomcat uninstall GUI, but the NSIS uninstall continues running in the background. What do I need to do to stop the NSIS from continuing until the tomcat uninstall is complete? Is there a way to run the Tomcat Uninstall quietly without a tomcat GUI?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Moved to correct forum. You need to find the correct command line arguments to get it to wait.
