Hi ...

I had similar problem.
My solution was to create the public property CRLF which will
contain the new line character sequence. Since I was not able to
fill the property with WiX I created the CustomAction which calls the
::MsiSetProperty(m_hInstall, L"CRLF", L"\r\n");
function.

Then I use the property [CRLF] in the strings to wrap the text.

Regards

Stefan
