Steve:

Thanks for the reply. I hadn't had a chance to experiment with this till 
today. I was looking at the two "<InstallExecuteSequence>" sections you 
show below and I guess I'm just not getting what makes the script only 
execute the <customaction> only on *UNinstall*, and not on install?

Also, is the second example (the one labeled "Now let's do something for 
uninstall:") an addition to the first one as in would both of those code 
pieces be included to make a working example?
