Immediate custom actions can both read and set properties, as well as read database tables and add temporary rows.

The environment variable DATE returns "Wed 08/18/2010" which then requires string formatting. This would be cake in Java script or VB script, but is there a way to return values from the custom action (other than exit code)? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
