I have a custom action that when called as a check in the InstallUISequence 
writes data to the log file via session.Log stmts.  But when a different method 
in the same custom action is called from a dialog then none of the session.log  
stmts are written to the log.

Here is how the custom action is called during the InstallUISequence:

    <InstallUISequence>
      <Custom Action="checkFoo"
              After="CostFinalize"
              Overridable="yes"/>
    </InstallUISequence>

This is how the custom action is called from the dialog:

   <Publish Event="DoAction" Value="checkFooBar"></Publish>

I'm baffled as to why this is happening. The only thing I can see different is 
from looking at how the custom action is invoked in the log.

When called from the InstallUISequence the log says this:   Calling custom 
action CustomActions!Install.CustomActions.CustomActions

When called from the dialog event the log says this:  MSI (c) (6C:48) 
[10:00:03:869]: Invoking remote custom action. DLL:

Am I missing something to enable the sesion logging in all situations? Perhaps 
there is some parameter that I need to set on the CustomAction declaration that 
is being called from the dialog that would allow session.Log to succeed?

Thanks for any assistance.
