OK, I figured my particular case out. The condition you want to use is simply "NOT Installed".
Example: <Custom Action="MyCustomAction" Before="ProcessComponents">NOT Installed</Custom> In this example, the MyCustomAction action will be run during the installation sequence, but will not be run during the uinstall sequence.

It is so frustrating trying to figure out how to do things that zillions of others must be doing all the time... In my case, I just want to run a custom action at install time. I have the custom action running just fine at install time now, but it also gets run when I uninstall the application. How can I stop it from running during the uninstall? Thanks in advance!
