Subject: [WiX-users] Creating Scheduled Tasks using Wix I found some code to create scheduled tasks during an install. I'm having trouble with one where I have to pass the following xml string on the command-line. XML string is "<DIRECTION>UP</DIRECTION>" Here is the code that creates the scheduled task: <CustomAction Id="CREATETASK_CC_CIS_FILE_CREATION_UPLOAD" Return="check" Directory="ScheduledTasks" ExeCommand="[SystemFolder]SCHTASKS.EXE /CREATE /SC DAILY /TN Run CC <DIRECTION>UP</DIRECTION> /ST 00:00:00 /SD 01/27/2006 /TR D:\apps\nfts\NFTS V3 Batch Processors\FireBatch\FireBatch.exe /RU [%USERDOMAIN]\[LogonUser] /RP" /> Is there a way to pass that as a string and not have votive or wix look at that string as xml?
