Hey Edwin,
did as you said and no go...

got this in the merge module:
SetEALNBService.CA23A0DC_B2DE_4F2C_9E74_FD373F99E9D7    51
EALNBService.CA23A0DC_B2DE_4F2C_9E74_FD373F99E9D7
"""[ProgramFilesFolder.CA23A0DC_B2DE_4F2C_9E74_FD373F99E9D7]\MyCompany\MyProduct\Services\EnterpriseAuditLogService\NServiceBus.Host.exe""
/installInfrastructure" 

code was:
<CustomAction Id="SetEALNBService" Property="EALNBService" 
Value="&quot;[$(var.PlatformProgramFilesFolder)]\MyCompany\MyProduct\Services\EnterpriseAuditLogService\NServiceBus.Host.exe&quot;
/installInfrastructure" Execute="immediate" />

in include:
  <?if $(var.Platform) = x64 ?>
  <?define PlatformProductName = "$(var.ProductName) (64 bit)" ?>
  <?define Win64 = "yes" ?>
  <?define DotNetFramework40Folder
="[%SystemRoot]\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\" ?>
  <?define PlatformProgramFilesFolder = "ProgramFiles64Folder" ?>
  <?else ?>
  <?define PlatformProductName = "$(var.ProductName)" ?>
  <?define Win64 = "no" ?>
  <?define DotNetFramework40Folder
="[%SystemRoot]\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\" ?>
  <?define PlatformProgramFilesFolder = "ProgramFilesFolder" ?>
  <?endif ?>

Logfile results:
PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding EALNBService.CA23A0DC_B2DE_4F2C_9E74_FD373F99E9D7
property. Its value is
'"\MyCompany\MyProduct\Services\EnterpriseAuditLogService\NServiceBus.Host.exe"
/installInfrastructure'.

** Moving that out of the merge module and placing the custom action into
the product.wxs it works... **

thanks,
Steve
