You should read lesson 3 of the WiX tutorial http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson3.php Look for how to set CustomActionData for your deferred actions.

I want to accomplish the following: 1. I want to modify an installed file using a CustomAction (CA1) 2. I want to run an external exe that uses the modified file as input (CustomAction CA2) 3. If any of the two CA:s above fails I want the installation to be rolled back. (it is not important for me to rollback any changes made by the CA:s) After reading some forum posts I belive that one way to do this is: 1. Schedule my CA1 after InstallFiles and set it as deferred 2. Schedule my CA2 after CA1 (also deferred) but as I have understod it I can only access the CustomActionsData property from CA1 since its set as deferred (and it must be deferred since I'm accessing a file that is installed by the MSI-package). This creates a problem for me, when modifing the file with CA1 I need to access several properties. Is there another way to do this, a way where I can access all my properties?
