Maybe this answer will come to you a bit too late, but nevertheless...
The
http://www.mail-archive.com/wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg15719.html
post contains a simple VS 2005 project (***KillMeSoftly.zipx
<http://www.mail-archive.com/wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg15719/KillMeSoftly.zipx>)*.
Within it is a KillMeSoftly.cpp source file which contains the logic to
read a MSI property value using MsiGetProperty function.
Maybe you will find it useful.
Cheers,
Boris
