Correct, you have to use CustomActionData. I encourage you to take a look at
the WiX CustomActions. They do all this stuff. Dutil.lib and Wcautil.lib also
has tons of helper functions that make life much easier.

Just to clarify, this means that I can't access any properties from my CA? And
if so, how do you pass a value (CustomActionData?) to a particular CA in WiX
parlance?

Yes. You have to run "in script" (deferred).

Subject: [WiX-users] Type 1 Custom Action
Does a type 1 custom action have to be deferred in order to get it to run AFTER
the files have already been installed? It seems when I set it up like this:
<CustomAction Id="MyCA" BinaryKey="CADll DllEntry="MyCA" />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="MyCA" After="InstallServices">NOT Installed</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
When the CA executes, the files haven't been copied yet? Why does this CA run
before the files have been copied?
