I need to substitute a call out to an .exe for a WiX dialog. 

Specifically, where I would normally be using CustomizeDlg.wxs in the dialog 
chain, I want instead to invoke the .exe. Based on the return code from the 
.exe, I want to either go back to the previous dialog, forward to the next 
dialog, or cancel the installation. That is, the rest of the dialog chain 
should not know or care that I'm stepping outside of "real" MSI dialogs.

I would prefer to use standard WiX/MSI dialogs, but I have to call out to some 
proprietary code from within the feature-selection dialog anyway. I earlier 
asked if I could modify the behavior of the standard MSI selection tree 
control, and was advised that I could not. I already have the .exe that shows 
the selection grid that I want and back/next/cancel buttons, and returns 
various exit codes based on what button got clicked. Since I can't do things 
MSI-pure anyway, I want to use the existing .exe as-is. So, how can I do that? 

Thanks in advance.
