No I am supplying certificate paths as parameter to msi at runtime. The build
is independent of the path. Wix might build tables at build time, but my guess
is it populates the paths based on the parameter. For my case the parameter is
defined in the courier file.
Thanks

Tallow is intended for running _once_ to create an initial .wxs document.
You should then be maintaining it manually. Generating scripts on every
build will likely cause you problems with component identities, which may
cause problems when trying to perform upgrades.

Ok, then how can you do it?
I can package distributable on the same CD, I can detect if it's installed
on user's computer but how can you trigger automatic install?
Installing Framework (if it's not installed) is mandatory task we have to
perform with our installer.

As Bob said, you cannot do this because you can't have two MSI installations
running concurrently. The .NET Framework 2.0 installation will fail if you
try to run it from a custom action in your MSI.

You can download donetfx.exe (which is Framework 2.0 redistributable) and run
it from your MSI via CustomAction's ExeCommand attirbute.
This is exactly what I have to do too.
