ProductName can not be changed during an install. It can only be transformed and applied as part of the execution of the installer. --- Christopher Painter, Author of Deployment Engineering Blog Have a hot tip, know a secret or read a really good thread that deserves attention? E-Mail Me

However, I'm not sure how to specify when this action should be executed. Orca shows that InstallUISequence contains the standard dialogs in the WixUI_InstallDir dialog set, but my custom dialog does not show up in the sequence. I define the action this way: <CustomAction Id="SetProductName" Property="ProductName" Value="[newProductName]" Execute="immediate"/> But I think I'm missing something in specifying how it runs: <InstallUISequence> <Custom Action="SetProductName" Execute="immediate" Before="???">1</Custom> </InstallUISequence> Should I be specifying the Before or After attribute? I can't specify my custom dialog in @After, and there isn't any room in the Sequence numbers in the InstallUISequence table (1296-1300) so I don't see how to use @Sequence either.
