The FindRelatedProducts action updates the property used in the Upgrade table 
with the product codes 
of the products it finds.  You could try adding your Product code to the same 
property, although I 
don't know what happens if the product doesn't exist.  You might need to use a 
custom action to 
check that.  If the property is blank after FindRelatedProducts you'll need to 
set it to "{GUID}". 
If it's not blank you'll need to append ";{GUID}" to it.  But like I said, this 
will need some 
careful testing.
