Yes! Thank you. I did find that I had to wrap it in CDATA.
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="DBInstall" Before="InstallFinalize"
><![CDATA[NOT Installed AND (&DB_FEAT=3) AND (!DB_FEAT=3)]]></Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>

This should do
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="DBInstall" Before="InstallFinalize"
>(&DB_FEAT=3) AND NOT(!DB_FEAT=3)</Custom> </InstallExecuteSequence>
Cheers

Subject: [WiX-users] How to use FeaturesDlg
I have 2 features. One installs and configures a service. The other
installs the database components. The database components are optional.
So I try to use FeaturesDlg from Wix to collect whether or not to
install the feature. This would work, except I also have a CustomAction
that should run only if the database components are installed. How can
I put a condition in the CustomAction so it won't execute if the Feature
was deselected in the FeaturesDlg.
Here's an abbreviation of the .wxs code.
<!--Define 2 features in the Product --> <Feature Id="SERVICE_FEAT"
Title="Service" Level="1">
<ComponentGroupRef Id="ServiceComponents" /> </Feature> <Feature
Id="DB_FEAT" Title="Database" Level ="1">
<ComponentGroupRef Id="DB_Components"/> </Feature> <!-Some
Properties to use in the condition. How do I set these using
FeaturesDlg? Is there a better way? -->
<Property Id="INSTALL_DB_FEAT" Hidden="no">YES</Property>
<Property Id="INSTALL_SERVICE_FEAT" Hidden="no">YES</Property>
<!-CustomAction to run exe installed by DB_FEAT ->> <CustomAction
Id="DBInstall" FileKey="DB_EXE" ExeCommand="-a"
Execute="deferred" Return="check" Impersonate="yes"/>
<!--Add action to InstallExecuteSequence with condition
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="DBInstall" Before="InstallFinalize" >NOT
Installed AND INSTALL_DB_FEAT = "YES"</Custom> </InstallExecuteSequence>
<!-- add reference to the FeaturesDlg in the Wix UI lib --> <DialogRef
Id="FeaturesDlg"/>
<Publish Dialog="WelcomeDlg" Control="Next" Event="NewDialog" Value="
FeaturesDlg ">NOT Installed</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="FeaturesDlg" Control="Back" Event="NewDialog"
Value="WelcomeDlg">NOT Installed</Publish> <Publish Dialog="FeaturesDlg"
Control="Install" Property="INSTALL_AEDB"
Value="AEDB_FEAT"></Publish> <
<Publish Dialog="FeaturesDlg" Control="Install" Event="NewDialog"
Value="VerifyReadyDlg">NOT Installed</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="VerifyReadyDlg" Control="Back" Event="NewDialog"
Value=" FeaturesDlg ">NOT Installed </Publish>
