You could use ProcessMonitor from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx and 
run the COM server registration process ( the command line is probably
{yourexename} /regserver ).
        The ProcessMonitor will give you the registry keys accessed by the
process. 
        Normally you should have entries under HKCR and HKCR\CLSID.
        Then I think somebody more experienced with Wix can tell you how to
write these entries in the
registry at installation time and also ensure they are removed at uninstall.

Subject: [WiX-users] Registering a com server within an installation

Hi: 

I have a com server (a .exe file). How do I go about registering this file
within an installation. Can I use heat to give me the wix source code?

Any help appreciated.

Sean.
