        Brian,
        
        Thanks for this.
        
        How do I make it deferred?

        Your Custom Action has to be deferred.  If it is immediate (the
        default), then it is run before the exe gets installed onto the
system.

        Hi,
        
        I am using Notepad.exe as an example.  I have created the
following
        simple
        wxs, which compiles and links fine.  However when I run the MSI
it
        crashes
        with an error.  According to all the documentation what I am
doing is
        right. 
        can anyone help??  I would be very grateful for any assistance.
        
        -Mike
