while implementing. I don't know where I am going wrong. Can any one post a
working sample for executing SQL Script using Patch(msp). I can able to
execute during install and uninstall of installer(msi).

I am having trouble with Burn with certain of my per-user MSIs. The log shows
they are Absent, when they are really Present. Since for some reason it thinks

I replaced Permission with util:PermissionEx in the sample below.

Thanks, there were autogenerated custom actions relying on
InstallUtilLib.dll since I am working off a dark.exe generated WiX project.
Removing these custom actions addressed System.IO.FileNotFoundException

Now onto repair.
