There are several tutorials out there, just google it. Here are two examples that I thought are useful: http://lostechies.com/gabrielschenker/2010/05/18/wix-and-custom-actions/ http://blog.softartisans.com/2011/10/18/creating-and-hooking-up-a-custom-action-in-wix/
Take a look at Wix' help for custom action as well: http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_xsd_customaction.htm I would also suggest reading general information about MSI custom actions, starting from here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/aa368062.aspx. At the end you need to understand what are you doing and not just copy-paste a code from internet in hope it'll work :) -----Original Message----- From: Chaitanya [mailto:chaita...@pointcross.com] Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2013 09:55 To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.'

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Read System IP adresss For such tasks I usually create a custom action that runs before AppSearch (make sure to place it into UI sequence and Execute sequence, depending on your needs). It gathers all information and sets relevant properties, which can be used during installation then. -----Original Message----- From: Chaitanya [mailto:chaita...@pointcross.com] Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2013 08:55 To: WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Read System IP adresss Hi, In wix I want to read system IP address.
