Can someone show me code that can successfully do it?

I tried:

<CustomAction Id='Mklink' Directory="myDir"
                      ExeCommand='[SystemFolder]cmd.exe /K mklink /D mylink
"[$(var.linkDest)]"' Execute="deferred" Impersonate="no" />

<InstallExecuteSequence>
            <Custom Action="Mklink"
Before="InstallFinalize">$needALinkForThisComp=3</Custom> <!-- runs at
install of that Compoent Id -->

</InstallExecuteSequence>

I'm running on Windows 7

The cmd window that pops up (titled: "Administrator:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe") indicates that the System user doesn't have
permission to make a symbolic link (thanks Microsoft!):
"You do not have sufficient privilege to perform this operation."


Thanks,

Scott
