I am adding a scheduled task thru the installer like this.

 

<CustomAction Id="CleanupTaskInstall" Directory="CompDir" Return="asyncNoWait"

           ExeCommand=' "schtasks.exe" /Create /RU "[SQLUSERNAME]" /rp [SQLPASSWORD] /SC [CLEANUPFREQUENCY] /ST 01:00:00 /TN "DBCLEANUPTASK" /TR "[#CLEANUP_EXE]" ' />

 

and it works fine in adding scheduled task, but not starting due to schtasks error.

 

I found out from the support site http://support.microsoft.com/?KBID=823093 that

I need to put “\” around the executable path to make it work. I verified this using

command line and it works fine.

 

I want to put this in WIX code, but ICE is complaining that it is not the correct format.

Is there a way I can escape this sequence and achieve " \"[#CLEANUP_EXE]\" ” 

from "[#CLEANUP_EXE]".

 

Thanks in advance,

chandra
