Try adding your password property to the MsiHiddenProperties row in the Properties table.

In spite of me putting Hidden="yes" for my password property, password gets printed in the log file if it is passed as a parameter to DLL through a custom action. I have set HideTarget="yes" for this custom action, still it displays the password. Am I missing out on anything? Thank you, Regards, Pallavi.

This is a semi-colon delimited list of properties whose values you do not want written to the log. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370308.aspx Regards, //aj On 6/6/07, Don Tasanasanta < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: In my install UI I ask for a password and store it in a property. If someone runs the install with logging turned on that property is found in several places in the log along with the unprotected password. Is there any way to prevent this? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
