In general (if using DTF): use the Session object to retrieve the property's value.
Deferred actions require using the "CustomActionData" value for retrieval (set that property by assigning a value to a property named after the deferred action's name) since deferred actions aren't given access to most of the database's installation session. -----Original Message----- From: Alex Wernecke [mailto:awerne...@finteq.co.za] Sent: Monday, February 15, 2010 1:11 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Send Property Value to a Form Hi, How would I send up a property value from a wix document to a variable in a C# custom action form? What I am needing to do is pass the installation directory path to the custom action form so that the form writes a correct path to an .exe for a scheduled task that it creates.
