What's stopping you asking the user questions in the InstallUISequence & running the DLL function in the InstallExecuteSequence as is standard practice? Your custom action doesn't need to run immediately as soon as you gather information from the user, you can still schedule it after InstallFiles or whatever you feel is appropriate.
No answer to basic or quiet UI?

The reason I can't ask the configuration questions earlier in the install process is that the installer installs a needed file. After this file is installed, I run a DLL function which parses the file and populates some properties prior to dialog display. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Conditiona l-dialog-display-when-uninstalling-tp5177778p5178312.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
