We do something similar, I ended up writing a custom build activity to do it.

If your build task is a MSBuild Task, you might be able to integrate it into 
the project file as well.

Subject: [WiX-users] Wix VS2010 Project Dynamic Output Name?

I have a WiX project in my Visual Studio 2010 solution. The "Output name" box 
static, and I would like to append a date or different code to the name at 
build time so it be identified in the filesystem easily. How can I change that 
value at build-time?


Thanks.
