The stock answer is to use MsiProcessMessage as described here:

Subject: [WiX-users] How to connect Custom Action and Progress dialog

Hi Wix-users,
 
In my install package progress dialog works fine for installation, like
copying new files. The progress bar is growing during the installation.
However, when I call the Custom Action, which takes pretty long time,
the progress bar is always empty, untill the Custom Action is over, the
progress dialog dispears, and the next dialog shows up.
 
How can I connect my Custom Action with Progress bar, instead of only
showing the empty progress bar?
 
The Custom Action is called as:
 
<InstallExecuteSequence>

<RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallFinalize" />

<Custom Action='VPAdminInstall' After='InstallFinalize'>NOT
Installed</Custom>

</InstallExecuteSequence>

 
 
Regards,
 
Chunyan
