Did you define the property in you MSI and declare it as Secure?

Ex (with remember-me pattern in place):

    <Property Id="BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY" Secure="yes">
      <RegistrySearch Id="FindBundleProviderKey" Root="HKLM" 
Key="SOFTWARE\$(var.ApplicationKeyPath)" Name="BundleProviderKey" Type="raw" />
    </Property>
...
    <CustomAction Id="SaveCmdLineBUNDLEPROVIDERKEY" 
Property="CMDLINE_BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY" Value="[BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY]" 
Execute="firstSequence" />
    <CustomAction Id="SetFromCmdLineBUNDLEPROVIDERKEY" 
Property="BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY" Value="[CMDLINE_BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY]" 
Execute="firstSequence" />
...
      <Custom Action='SaveCmdLineBUNDLEPROVIDERKEY' Before='AppSearch'/>
      <Custom Action='SetFromCmdLineBUNDLEPROVIDERKEY' 
After='AppSearch'>CMDLINE_BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY</Custom>

Jacob,

You mentioned something interesting that I can't get to work. I tried

<Chain>
  <MsiPackage SourceFile="$(var.projectName.TargetPath)">
    <MsiProperty Name="BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY" Value="[WixBundleProviderKey]"/>
  </MsiPackage>
</Chain>

But BUNDLEPROVIDERKEY is always empty in the msi log.

Should I expect that to work?
