Thanks Rob, that did the trick.
Now I have another problem - how do I remove the dummy record from the combo
table?
I have to add the dummy value to the combo for the combo table to be created
in the msi, but then I can't remove it. Here is what I tried

Sub DeleteFromComboBox(ByVal comboProp) 
    Dim query, view
    ' create the query string
    query = "DELETE FROM `ComboBox` WHERE `Property` = '" & comboProp & "'"
    ' create the view object based on the query
    Set view = Session.Database.OpenView(query)
    ' invoke the query to add the combo value
    view.Execute
End Sub

I also tried to update it, but that also doesn't work:
Sub UpdateComboBox(ByVal comboProp, ByVal oldComboValue, ByVal comboOrder,
ByVal comboValue, ByVal comboText) 
    Dim query, view
    ' create the query string
    query = "UPDATE `ComboBox` SET `Order` = " & comboOrder & ", `Value` =
'" & comboValue & "', `Text` = '" & comboText & "') " _
             & " WHERE `Property` = '" & comboProp & "' AND `Value` = '" &
oldComboValue & "' TEMPORARY"
    ' create the view object based on the query
    Set view = Session.Database.OpenView(query)
    ' invoke the query to add the combo value
    view.Execute
End Sub
