Do you mean the messages? WiX UI extension includes the necessary constructs to build the Error table. The actual messages come from the localization file specified on the light.exe command line. If you want to change them, you can modify these strings. I'm not quite sure how this works with v3's -

Mike, Given what you describe, I assume you are using a property for the shortcut name (and that property can be modified by the user interface). Unfortunately, Microsoft installer does not retain any knowledge of properties from one execution to the next, and that is why the value for that prope
