Yes and no. INSERT INTO ... TEMPORARY statements work, I understand (from personal experience). Using TEMPORARY means that the statements just add to the tables that are already loaded into memory. I'm using this custom action on uninstall, not on install, so it doesn't need to permanently write to the tables, so TEMPORARY is just fine. But, I realized after I wrote this that the RemoveFiles table column that I'm trying to connect to with the directory table entries is called DirProperty, not Directory_, which implies to me that I should be setting properties with directory locations instead of adding to the Directory table! I'll try that and report back if it was successful. (Since this isn't a deferred action, I should be able to set any non-SDK property, as well as getting them!) --Curtis -- Curtis Jewell swords...@csjewell.fastmail.us %DCL-E-MEM-BAD, bad memory -VMS-F-PDGERS, pudding between the ears [I use PC-Alpine, which deliberately does not display colors and pictures in HTML mail] -- Curtis Jewell swords...@csjewell.fastmail.us %DCL-E-MEM-BAD, bad memory -VMS-F-PDGERS, pudding between the ears [I use PC-Alpine, which deliberately does not display colors and pictures in HTML mail] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
