I seem to remember this being a warning that at design time you are sticking 
too much text into the CA.  This is a limitation of the DB Schema for the 
CustomAction tables Target field.  I worked around it via multiple CA's.

Ex:
From
  <CustomAction Id="CAFoo.SetProperty" Property="CAFoo" 
Value="A=[A];B=[B];C=[C]...;Z=[Z];" /> To
  <CustomAction Id="CAFoo.SetPropertyA" Property="CAFooA" 
Value="A=[A];B=[B];C=[C];"
  <CustomAction Id="CAFoo.SetPropertyB" Property="CAFooB" 
Value="D=[D];E=[E];F=[F];"
  <CustomAction Id="CAFoo.SetPropertyC" Property="CAFooC" 
Value="G=[G];H=[H];I=[I];"
  <CustomAction Id="CAFoo.SetProperty" Property="CAFoo" 
Value="[CAFooA][CAFooB][CAFooC]"

And then just schedule the ABC variants to happen before the final one which 
brings it all together.

Subject: [WiX-users] Sending lots of properties to a deferred CA

Hi All,

I have a deferred CA that I need to send 18 properties to.  If I shove all of 
these into one CustomAction Data CA I get an ICE03: String overflow warning.  
How do I go about getting all of these properties to the CA?  Can I split it up 
somehow?

Thanks,
Nick
