to run a custom exe within the setup you need to include the exe as a binary and than reference to it in the custom action. Note that the ExeCommand just contains the command line parameter and not the executable file itself. Example: <Binary Id='MyExe' SourceFile="\PATH\TO\MyExe.exe" /> <CustomAction Id='MyID' BinaryKey='MyExe' ExeCommand='-Param1 -Param2' Return='check' /> Hope that helps, Frank ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
