Hi ,
Is it possible to display the images while running the custom action using
the Billboard? . Currently, in my installer images are displayed using the
Billboard while installing the features. But while running the CA it will
not get displayed.

Thanks guys. So looks like the only option is to enable logging in registry
manually that will create log files for any program when uninstalled from
Control Panel. I guess I have to live with it.

Hi All
I'm trying to replace a custom action in our installer with some
default WiX code. Currently the customer installer displays a dialog
which asks for (up to) 4 user names. The custom action then writes
these user names to a text file that gets placed in our application
directory. The first t

uninstalling Wix prior to installing the latest build).

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
SDK\VisualStudioIntegration\Tool
