Hi,
I do tie the control to the LFM_Server_Root property, but it still
doesn't update.
What I want to do is on a button click fire a custom control. Within
that custom control set a property and when the custom control has
finished I want this value to appear on the dialog that the button was
Good point, I thought something was already implemented

A verbose log file will show you when the Property is getting modified. Also,
it is possible you're trying to use the Property on the server side of the
Windows Installer so the Property would need to be marked Secure=yes.

That build is a year old. We've made a gazillion bug fixes since then.
Because WiX v3 is Beta the expectation is that you're picking up builds at

I would never recommend calling a batch file as part of an install. Rolling
back a batch file sounds like a lot of work... especially since batch files
don't have any kind of transactionality in them.
Can you investigate the CustomActions of the Merge Module more and see if there
is some way
Sorry, when I say fixed, it sounds like you need to get the CustomActions to
understand that they may not always be installed. I say very brittle because
when CustomActions have this sort of behavior, they usually have problems with
repair scenarios which are also important for patching... and

I´ve got an EXE which ist only needed during install, uninstall or modify

Thanks, what I did is same as what you suggested. The difference is yours CA

Why don't you include the EXE and the DLL as well in the Binary table ? If your
file is only needed for maintenance (install, repair, uninstall), then do not
deploy it.
If I remember correctly, all files in the Binary table are extracted to the
same folder during (un)installation.
BTW, if the registry which storing the install path be deleted by user or some
other applications, can the uninstall get the correct install path ?
